Student Review

Guests would come in and give us talks about what their jobs involved within their companies. These companies included BP, HP and Dell. We would also get time at the end to ask our own questions to help better our understanding about the work experience. Computacenter also gave their own talks and had us complete group activities together so that we could better our team-working in a workplace.

I was able to better my own social skills as i was working in groups with people i had never met before. I also learnt how to come up with creative ideas and present them to others in form of a lecture/presentation. This helped me to gain more confidence speaking in front of others.

I enjoyed the work experience a lot as it was very informative and I feel I gained a lot of new skills.

It was very well planned out and scheduled.

I feel that due to the senior employees that came and spoke to us, I have a good idea of what it would be like if I were to join the company.

It helped me gain experience in both sales and IT fields which will most likely be the route I am going to take in my career.

I was not paid but received a lot of free gift bags.

We got to speak with existing employees and students who were doing apprenticeships. It helped to gain an understanding of what I would be doing if I joined.

Yes

Because it is a nice company filled with friendly and helpful people. The facilities are also very nice and there are many different aspects of the company that you could join.

To be confident and ready to learn more about other people and your own potential future career.
