Throughout the placement, participants worked alongside staff from all levels.  Each placement had a buddy. 

We engaged with BT Openreach  Customer Service Engineering with Openreach: daily contact with residential and business customers, working in diverse environments, including outside.  You will learn some practical skills and help the engineer with tasks such as installing new services, broadband boost, diagnosing and fixing faults and have opportunities to practice and improve your customer relationship skills.
