Hywel
Past UX Placement Student
Developer (UX)
“Applying for a Placement position with Pinewood was the best decision I’ve made! During my induction, I was introduced to the software we’d be working on, alongside the principles of the languages used in the Development teams. We were given projects and activities which taught us important communication skills, whilst learning various Computer Science concepts too. This made my final year much easier!
I had a mentor who was incredibly helpful, pushing me to get the most out of my year, and couldn’t have asked for a better team.”
Ashvini
Past Placement Student
Senior Project Delivery Manager
“During my Placement year, I worked on several international projects for customers in the Netherlands and the Philippines. I was a novice to product development, but my team gave me the guidance I needed to succeed. Towards the end of the year, I was able to manage my own project, which required coordinating various teams and organizing software releases.
The knowledge and skills I developed during my Placement year have been vital for my role as a Project Delivery Manager.”
