I was a Supply Chain Intern.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes major responsibility. At loreal you are not treated as just another intern. You are treated as a colleague and become an indispensable part of the team. Just within 2 months of my placement I was leading a very important project which involved a number of different stakeholders.
