“BIS students are ideal for placement in a service transformation environment. Their unique combination of technical and business skills allows them to understand the organisational needs and see the customer perspective, with the ability to translate these requirements into newly designed digital services. Their creativity, communication skills and problem-solving ability is also a huge advantage in the design process. We are delighted to welcome BIS students into our team and hope this will continue into the future. “ Service Republic, Cork County Council
“The CIT placement program is highly valued in Musgrave’s with particular emphasis on the bi-annual tradeshows. Due to the complexity and critical deadlines that need to be met to ensure these project targets are completed successfully requires the ability to deal with a wide variety of skills, from cross-functional meetings, application support, documentation as well as networking & hardware preparation - The intern was able to meet these challenges as well as becoming a go-to person for the I.T. department on a number of other projects. I would recommend the CIT placement program wholeheartedly due to the high value added by the Students on offer” IT and Innovations Manager, Musgraves
