  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • I was often put in a lead position on tasks concerning research and planning, however I did have to confirm things with my superiors before making final decisions. However I felt this was a good policy as it meant receiving instant feedback and gave me the confidence to work without worrying about making serious mistakes.
