My role at Goodyear was as the Retail Marketing Undergraduate, I gained plenty of varied experience. This included: event management; working with the franchise distribution network; and the ins and outs of SEO, eCommerce and media, while also taking on lots of extra responsibilities.
During the placement, I was allocated a brilliant placement tutor who was available for support at any time and had regular meetings to assist with my Diploma in Placement Studies report and wellbeing.
My best accomplishment during the year was raising over £5,000 for the corporate charity, Breast Cancer Now with a range of self-led activities.
I was also thrilled to win the Undergraduate Placement Award, it was lovely to have the hard work from my year recognised, both by my manager who nominated me and the judges, especially when considering all the amazing work completed by other students just like myself.
