The Role
The people in the office, the HR team and all of the other interns were really friendly. I learnt a lot - tiring but very worthwhile!
Both my trainee buddy and my supervisor were very supportive throughout.
The Company
The people were very friendly, although also very busy!
We had a fun and busy timetable that went without a hitch!
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
The Culture
Everyone bonded very well!
London is generally quite expensive
Again - good but expensive.
There were lots of organised evening events, both social and sporting and also charity work.
