BA (Hons) Business Studies student Elizabeth Falkowska recently worked at Microsoft as an intern and shared her experiences as part of BU鈥檚 #MyPlacementStory campaign, highlighting the range of placements being taken on by BU students.
Elizabeth said: 鈥淢icrosoft is constantly changing and innovating, which I love because I quite like fast-paced things, and don鈥檛 particularly like doing the same things every day. The placement option was definitely one of the reasons that I chose to go to BU, because I thought it was really important to not only get a degree but also get a year in industry.
鈥淥n my placement so far, one of the key things that I鈥檝e learned is how to communicate better with people and make people listen to you, and also my presentation skills have got better 鈥� when I talk to clients, even if it鈥檚 on the phone, that鈥檚 a way of presenting yourself.
聽鈥淵ou鈥檙e up against so many people with a degree, so when you come out of Uni so having a year to back you up is really important because I鈥檝e learned so much that I might not have learned at university.鈥�
BU graduates are working in all of the top ten companies, according to figures from LinkedIn, with the possible exceptions of MI6 and MI5 (3rd and 7th ranked), whose employees are not publically listed. The top ten companies include Google, Cancer Research UK, British Airways, and Microsoft.
Linda Ladle, Careers and Employability Manager at BU said: 鈥淲e have an impressive graduate employability record. We firmly believe that the approach that we take in preparing of our students for their future careers really works. This is clearly reflected when you look at how many of our students are employed by the Top 10 companies.鈥�
