i am currently working to improve the system of work that is used across the shop floor by implementing new systems and technology.
i have greatly increased my people skills as well as my ability to manage various projects
i very much enjoy the work i do.
it is fairly well structured and i have a lot of influence in regards to what i want to learn while on placement
i recieve a lot of support from my placement/ PoC and have 12 weekly reviews with early careers
i receive adequate support but sometimes it can be lacking from individual teachers rather than them as a whole
i feel that it has slightly increased my knowledge of engineering in general but it hasnt come into my placement work at all really since starting the business, as it is all experienced and people based skills that are useful.
i play in a 6 a side football team with other work colleagues.
