- In this video, I'll be sharing my university placement year experience. My placement year was really useful, but wasn't without some challenges! I did my placement year with Unilever in the Supply Chain business function and had to relocate for the placement. I hope you can learn from my experience and gain some useful insight into what a placement year in university is like, commonly called a year in industry or sandwich year.

This is really insightful. Liked that you talked about the high points and the low ones. Well done on getting on the grad scheme 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you Priscilla!
Thanks for the insight into placement years
You’re very welcome! ☺️
Yes please do a video on how to deal with being introverted and quiet!! ❤️
Will do :)
I’m going into my second year of Chem Eng at Cambridge and came across your video and channel. Wish you all the best
Thank you and all the best at Cambridge!
Am doing chemical engineering course. Thanks for posting this video its helps a lot. !!
Glad it could help!
It’s also such a great point about tooting your own horn in a professional setting. I think we can all learn about that especially for BAME women. I’d please like a video how to do this without coming across as arrogant
Absolutely! I definitely have tips to share 😊
Yes please! Highly needed
I have founded this very useful thank you
Amazing! Thank you for letting me know ☺️
Thanks for the insight I’m in the process of applying and I’m not sure if I want to take a placement year and if I want to relocate!!!
Big decision to make!
Well done!!
How often are people offered jobs or graduate schemes to come back after university cause that’s something I’m really looking out for. And what would you say the best way to achieve this is?
I would say it depends on the company because that’s usually one of the main goals of placement schemes. But usually some placement students are offered a graduate role, not all though. Take a look at my how to be seen and heard as a new graduate/intern video for some tips. But in a nutshell work very hard and build a good network. Even if you don’t get an offer, people you build networks with and remain in contact with may be able to help you when looking for jobs in your final year. Hope this helps!
Actually it was really epic...
I'm pursuing chemical engineering 3rd year.
And moreover I have doubt how about chemical engineering job opportunities in food and beverage, pharmaceutical, polymer manufacturing industries. In (USA,uk, Canada, Germany euro)
If you know tell me.
Hi I just came across your channel. Am in yr12 tryna do chemical engineering in Uni, did you do any work experience for your personal statement? Would appreciate a response, thank you
Hey, I did no work experience
@@TEMSInfluence thank you for responding🙏🏽
Hi can you please do a video oh psychometric testing how to pass the game based assessments etc for stem grad jobs cant seem to pass any
Hi Isabella, absolutely!
@@TEMSInfluence and also include where you looked for chem eng which sites etc x
I'm going to year 13 this summer and I decided to do chem engineering over medicine at Uni I could not do any work experience due to COVID so what can I put in my personal statement
It’s very rare to have engineering experience so don’t worry about this. Just read engineering magazines like Ingenia for additional things to put in the personal statement that interest you and definitely don’t write about chemistry in the personal statement. Discuss why you’re motivated to study it, it’s impacts on society and why you’re passionate about it
Hello Temi, I hold an HND chemical engineering and I would like to top up my degree in University of Huddersfield..I would like you to guide me through the placement process
Hey, please send me an email or a dm on Instagram !
Hi i am going into my second year and I am looking into placements. How did you find moving to a new city by yourself?
Hey, thanks for watching! It was quite nice having my own place and everything, but once the novelty wore off there was definitely an adjustment period. If you’re planning on moving cities, make sure you move to a safe area with things to do around you
@@TEMSInfluence thankss❤️❤️❤️
@@TEMSInfluenceDo you pay for accom urself and do you still get maintenance loan ?😊
@@redroses4679 yes you do! It’s a heavily reduced amount but you can opt not to take it also
Many says chemical Engineering jobs are hard to find. What would you say about this?
Hey! I’d say there might be less jobs available compared to other types of engineering, but it’s definitely not as scarce as it’s sometimes made out to be. I think the issue is that they’re not always advertised with the ‘process/chemical engineer’ title. Sometimes it will be a grad scheme in supply chain or in the R&D department and then you influence your career towards engineering once you’re in the company. However, a lot chemical plants are already designed and a lot of work now is optimisation or work associated with retrofitting unit operations onto existing plants, so don’t limit yourself to a pure chemeng role.
@@TEMSInfluence That is really sad the way it is broadcasted that jobs are scarce. It made me change my the mind at the brink of application process so i changed from ChemE ( something i would've loved) to IT ( something I'm taking because there's plenty of jobs for this major). Now I'm struggling with it a lot even though I'm still on the first semester! Due to being a international student in UK i can't really change my course. I wish i took ChemE instead!
I'm currently doing my bachelor's degree in chemical engineering. I want to work in UK. What are the qualifications I need and your suggestions about that? Pls help me...Thank you
Whereabouts are you doing your bachelors?
@@TEMSInfluence In India
I would suggest doing a summer school or exchange/study abroad programme in the U.K. if you can. I’d also suggest searching for internships and graduate jobs with employers that sponsor tier 2 or ‘skilled worker’ visas
Also, work on getting work experience in your own country and doing well in your degree!
@@TEMSInfluence Ok.... thanks for your advice...That means a lot...❤️
Hello good video of yours. My partner is chemical engineer graduate. Can we contact you for further guidance related to job and masters ?
Sure, you can send me an email or dm on Instagram
“Go home mate” phahahahahahaha
