    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • I enjoyed my internship very much, found what I was doing interesting and tailored to what I wanted to get out of it.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • Very much, I was constantly given positive feedback and saw my work being of value to others.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • I would have found it a little easier if there was a colleague who would always be there and have time to explain little things like acronyms to me in the first week or two, but otherwise, my managers were always happy to help/give guidance/explain how to do a task.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • I was quite busy, but that is because I was very keen to help as much as I could and take on as much work as colleagues would be give me.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • An example would be where I was in place to make the decision on whether a report is in line with the internal policy. I would still ask my manager to check over it but he trusted me not to miss any details out.

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I knew what skills I wanted to develop, and worked on them as well as many others.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • Some desks were more lively than others, I wouldn't say that there was too much fun in the office during the day, however closer to the evening, people tend to crack more jokes and make up for it by going to bars every Friday.

    4/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • I wouldn't say that the first week was full of events for me, but after that I took the matter into my own hands and organised many opportunities for myself, with the help of my managers.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • I was given an opportunity to do everything I wanted, go on branch visits, visit other head offices, telephony sites, attend networking events etc. I also knew that my manager would always find time to speak to me if there was anything I wanted to discuss, went through my development plan etc.

    5/5

  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?
  • Flexi Time

    National Travel

    4/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • I am planning on continuing working for the company after I graduate.

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • We would do something once or twice a week with other placement students and go out to a bar/pub with work colleagues weekly too.

    4/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • It was reasonably priced, in my opinion.

    5/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • There were lots of bars, clubs, festivals etc.

    5/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • There are always opportunities, as long as you're looking for them..

    5/5
