Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
In charge of the HR email inbox so answering Associate queries. Processing new starters, job changes and leavers (this involves creating the documentation, sending emails to the Associates and their line managers and updating HR systems). Processing payroll each month correctly.
Worked on the undergraduate recruitment process (advertising the roles, training line managers, reviewing CV and cover letters, interviewing candidates, planning and leading the virtual assessment day). Also ran various reports for people in the company.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes as we dealt with confidential information and we had the opportunity to lead some projects but sometimes during these projects we did not make the decisions.

Did not really experience much of the Philosophy but the people are nice. Sometimes there is a difference between being an Undergraduate and full-time Associate. Due to COVID-19 we were not in the office much but did really appreciate the support from some members of the department.
