Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My main role on a day-to-day basis was helping with the Learning & Development function. This included scheduling training for employees, filing certificates, communicating with training providers or employees about upcoming training, and other administrative tasks.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a good amount of responsibility during my placement. There were certain tasks that I would follow the lead of others, but I was also provided with opportunities to do tasks and projects where I had the chance to take it in a direction of my choice and that I was responsible for.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
