Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, the managers I work with, and every manager I have encountered, are all very willing to make sure you get what you want out of the experience. For example I have taken training sessions which is not usual and also helped the VP with important data for the business. These were things added as I was learning and progressing through the internship. There never was a boring day!
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
My drafting skills have improved as I draft questions and reports for investigations. I have also taken part in training and led sections which has improved my public speaking meaning that I have gained confidence in that area. Due to relevant audits within the company I have learnt how to use various case and data management systems as well as being able to pull this data.

Support and Guidance
How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
Lots of guidance and support from every individual in the business. You are encouraged to reach out to others in the business and learn and network that way. I have found that within NBC there is no invisible redline which you cannot cross, as someone more junior in the team, everyone is more than happy to help!

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend NBCUniversal to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to NBCUniversal
I would be open to every new experience that comes your way. As well as making sure to say yes to new opportunities outside of your role. This allowed me to meet so many new people and build really supportive circles that will open up multiple doors.
