4. How valued do you feel by CGI?

Yes, having various mentors, a people manager and a line manager as well as the SDP team and members around there is not a lack of support and this makes me feel valued. Projects love having sponsored degree programme students and we are seen as the up and coming talent in the company

10/10

5. How well organised/structured is your programme?

Very organised, always kept in the loop by our SDP team and can see they work hard to keep structure. Members of CGI are also very aware of our timetable and so are very good at structuring our work around uni.

Enough so that I don't feel my hand is held, which I think is important when getting used to the real world!!

As much as I need, I have never felt a lack of it.

7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?

They pay expenses, uni and a salary, obviously it would be nice for more but I think its a very competitive rate, especially as we are still 'students'... I just bought an Audi so im happy :P
