"My favourite part of my role so far has been doing work-shadowing in a variety of roles within the business. It’s allowed me to gain insight into other people’s responsibilities and how everyone makes an impact. 

The start of my programme went very smoothly. I was eased into my role, so I didn’t feel overwhelmed, and everyone at the site is very friendly and welcoming."

"I chose to do a placement year primarily for the valuable work experience and the opportunity to learn on the job and gain new skills. It also helps that a placement year helps me to stand out compared to other graduates when I leave university.

The start of my programme has been very busy! I have been gaining huge amounts of knowledge every day, but it has been very rewarding now that I am able to contribute to my team with my own projects. I have made lots of connections and I am optimistic for the rest of the placement."

"Doing an IP sets you apart from everyone else. Having a full year of experience with DHL, who are the biggest logistics company in the world, will make your application even more attractive and therefore you are more likely to land your dream job.
 
My favourite part of the role has been exposure to various industries. You get incredible insights into each industry, like what's trending, what customers like and dislike and how DHL can meet their customers' needs."
