  • 1. Please give an overview of what your work experience involved:
  • The work experience that I completed with Siemens was greats and taught me a lot. The information of text, videos, forms and interactive quizzes helped as it also tests to make sure I understood the information and could use it in the correct context. The videos were helpful, straight to the point and very informative. I would recommend any student in IT to complete this course as it puts the information from your course info practice

  • 2. What training and skills development did you learn from your work experience?
  • Understanding different information given to me in different ways such as text, images, video, forms and quizzes. It also taught me how their company runs and functions day to day and that not every day is the same. I believe that teaching students that in IT that not every day is the same is good as it’s always changing

  • 5. How much did you learn about the company culture and what it would be like to work there?
  • I learnt a lot about the company and the company culture and work processes and procedures. It was very easy to understand how the company worked day to day and how it functions. I believe this is good for all students to learn as it teaches them that each tech company may run differently to what they are experiencing

  • 6. How much did your work experience help you in deciding on your future career path?
  • I was already going to head into the IT industry but this work experience also helped me choose that tech is definitely the right choice of a career for me and my future.

  • No I was never paid for this work expense and wasn’t expecting to be as it was part of my college course requirements work expense hours. If they would like to pay me for this work expense that would be grate but it wouldn’t be a deciding factor for me
