Overview of Role

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

Started at 9am. Looked through emails. Daily stand-up at 9:45. Rest of the day is with meetings with managers or people in team, and lots of coding.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

Yes, I was designed with a whole feature of a client-facing app. This meant that I had full ownership of my feature. I had to attend meetings with product managers and people in business, giving many demos, as well as be responsible for writing industry-standard, tested code.

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?

A lot of guidance! Many workshops, and my team members always made sure to make time to answer any of my questions. They walked up to my desk, asked if I needed any help. And whenever I pinged them online, they'd reply instantaneously!

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?

Collaborative, fun, not cutthroat at all. Felt very at ease to ask for help, or set up meetings for a quick catch up coffee. Also had my own mentors to call if I ever needed help.
