Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
The role included a project for each intern. This would be what we were working on majority of the time. At the start of the internship there was SQL training to get acquainted as well as business department introductions. During the mid-weeks it was mainly data analytics and building on the project. Towards the end it included formulating recommendations and building a slide deck to present to the director and manager(s).
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
We were given a project and this was something that can have a real impact on the business. At the end your recommendations (if any) were taken into account properly.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Support and Guidance
How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
Guidance was available when needed and every week there would be usually 2 meetings with your manager and mentor each. You are assigned a buddy as well and the meetings can vary from 1-3 a week also. People are friendly and it is easy to reach out to them and put in some time if you require advice.
