REQUESTS for work experience can put fear into many employers' minds, but this need not be the case, says Melanie Lean. Work experience can offer students an insight into the type of work a life in practice can involve, be that as a vet, veterinary nurse, technician, pharmacist, farrier or radiographer, to name but a few. Here, she outlines the work experience programme in place at Rossdale & Partners, which is now in its 20th year.
