The Role
Good placement with good people, but the IT systems were sometimes frustrating even when trying to complete simple tasks
Team were very welcoming and recognised my strengths
Line manager always available and willing to help. Excellent
At the start very quiet, at times extremely busy, but mostly ok
Empowered to complete appropriate tasks, but difficult to own too much due to the fact that clients need continuity and consistency, not being passed from person to person
Time management and ability to confidently deal with senior people will help
The Company
Didn't get to attend the induction event as it was my second placement - I feel I missed out on some things as a result. Communications from Internships Team and Emerging Talent sometimes confusing
Company Parties/Events
The Culture
Great social scene
