  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

    • On a day-to-day basis I build cars with other associates. There are 14 takts in a day so we build 14 cars a day. You can get signed off on jobs so then you can build on your own. You can go on placements onto different departments and experience different things.

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

    • Yes. I have learnt so much. I have been signed off of jobs and can build multiple parts of cars. In my placement I have learnt how much problem solving is involved.
