  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • There has not really been a time when i have had nothing to do. However, if i did have little to do i asked my managers and they gave me work to get on with.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • After the handover period and getting to know my role and each task, i had great responsibilty to get them done and to a high standard. A lot of the tasks i did i did without help and were quite important tasks that had to be completed.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • Very fun/chilled out. Everyone was extremely friendly and was eager to find out more about you. Spoke to you about things other than work related subjects. Everyone was good friends.

    5/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • Very well organised. There was a set handover period so i knew what i was doing and there were set tasks that i were responsible for. It was well managed and organised due to having many previous undergraduates doing the same role. The role was well established.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • E.ON is big on development. Any opportunitys to gain more skills/experiences, E.ON and my team were willing to help/facilitate. If i showed a keen interest in another part of the business or wanted to get some different experiences, then my initiative to organise this was welcomed. I also attended many training courses during my placement.

    5/5

    Sports and Social Club

    Subsidised/Company Gym

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    4/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement 西瓜视频s/colleagues?
  • I am friends with every placement 西瓜视频 at my site/location of work. We all sit together at Lunch and meet up lots outside of work. There is a great close network of placement 西瓜视频s here.

    5/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • Reasonably cheap. Lived in a 西瓜视频 area so housing was fairly cheap and socialising/nights out were also cheap.

    5/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • I lived in the same town where I am at university so the nightlife is great due to the 西瓜视频 buzz and i was still near all my friends who had stayed on at university. If i had not been at university here it still would have been great.

    5/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • E.ON most often always has some activity going on outside of work whether its a team bowling night or a 'sports day' type event.

    5/5
