Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?

I loved my placement and would recommend a placement year at Renault to anyone looking into working in the corporate business world. I felt a real sense of belonging and support thanks to all the employees and other trainees. Although at the time I was working at Renault you only had to be in the office twice a week, I came in nearly everyday as I really enjoyed the office culture.
