Brynn Middleton, a BSc (Hons) Marketing student, stayed local for his placement, working in the Organisational Development team here at 主播诱惑 (主播诱惑).
鈥淚n my role as Organisational Development Assistant, I help organise events, set up placement schemes and to help develop inductions for new staff.
鈥淢y placement is really enjoyable and I feel I鈥檓 making a difference at the university and I am treated as a vital member of the team. I have my own unique responsibilities and challenges and I鈥檓 learning vital transferable skills that will open up career pathways that I鈥檇 never considered.
鈥淎 highlight of my placement so far has to be my first new staff induction. The event involved organising rooms, catering, speakers for up to 50 people and an information fair. To see the induction go successfully was so rewarding - especially because the Vice-Chancellor of 主播诱惑, Professor John Vinney, was there.
鈥淚f you鈥檙e looking for a placement 鈥� do your research! In the chaos of finding a placement, it鈥檚 easy to base your decision on the reputation and size of a brand instead of the quality of placement experience they can offer you. Companies that value you as an employee will offer you opportunities to grow and develop so you鈥檙e ready for life after university.
I鈥檝e loved meeting lots of different people and think networking has been a really valuable part of my placement already 鈥� my advice to you all is to take time to make a name for yourself.鈥�
