Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

With Group IT, we can have many different roles within it. I currently am doing a cyber rotation where my day to
day involves having several talks or meetings and often preparing for a presentation. I also have a meeting with my line manager most days.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

We were giving relevant and meaningful tasks and were given enough responsibility that it did not feel like we didn’t do anything.

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?

I’ve very much developed my skills in terms of presentation skills. As my degree didn’t really need reports, I never had the skills to but I have definitely learnt the skills of research and report building.

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?

It was a very supportive and honest culture here, they allowed us to make mistakes and ask somewhat “stupid” questions as long as it was relevant enough. I never felt pressured to do anything I wasn’t comfortable in and it was a very social environment.
