Fahez Siddiqi - Summer STEM Work Placement Student - Weekly Reports

Work experience is great and it provides students with many benefits whilst gaining skills and helping choose the right future career path for pupils. Having work experience on a Curriculum Vitae will make a person stand out to employers as they will notice they have motivation and a real passion for work. It will also help to boost a students confidence in themselves! 

The STEM placement students are sending us weekly blogs all about their experience in the world of work! 

See how Fahez is getting on with their STEM placement! 

Week One 

"During the week, I was placed in the asset management division of Jacobs which helps maintain assets for other companies. These assets could be flooded defences, railway lines or anything else. During the week I was tasked with researching and presenting a PowerPoint on the TEAM2100 project which aims to maintain and improve flood risk management assets for the environment agency until the end of the century. On top of this, I created the interactive section for a training programme on asset management for South East water. Additionally, I was able to go to the TEAM2100 office where I was able to meet senior engineers working on the project as well as some others."
