Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?

I had access to all the support I needed each day and never felt I couldn't ask for help when I required it. I worked closely with another graduate surveyor on the main work I was doing, so I could always ask questions and ensure I was always kept busy.
