    4/5

    5/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • Spoke my languages a lot, but otherwise the internship didn't have much to do with my degree.

    3/5

    The Company

    4/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • Yeah- lots of social events, pub after work, nice + fun atmosphere. Everyone here is also young so it's never old, boring or stuffy.

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • I'm from London so didn't notice cost different but it's expensive!

    5/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • Good- post-city life so lots of outdoor drinks. Not London's best scene, but there's plenty of places around.

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • I didn't personally, but I think there were some.

    4/5
