    • We had discussions with employees from all over the business, there seems to be a happy culture and this can only benefit the staff the the company as a whole.

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

    • Several networking sessions with different levels of staff from interns to senior management.
