Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
It was not to do with my degree so I did not enjoy much of it. I was promised more engineering based roles in the interview. The job probably doesn't require an intern as there is not enough to do to fill up a whole day of work. There was not enough variation in the job role for gaining experience in an internship
