The Role
I thoroughly enjoyed my placement year.
Most good work was recognised and noted.
At every possible opportunity there is guidance available.
There is always tasks to complete in all different areas of the business.
As time went on, my opportunities increased.
The organisational skills required will definately help me with my final year of my degree, and also my interactional skills have improved.
The Company
Each office I worked in had good members of staff so it was always enjoyable.
I knew exactly what to do and what my goals were.
Always training available, whether it was on the job or at head office.
Flexi Time
Company Parties/Events
Healthcare from home
There are many different prospects available, in all areas of the business.
The Culture
I made many friends within my initial training group, which meant it was always fun to meet them for training.
I lived at home so it was very reasonable.
I never went out in Redhill, as I live a lot closer to London.
I lived at home, so many available activities.
