The Role
Really nice company to work in, great people and a supportive atmosphere.
I felt like a part of the team and was given large tasks which gave me a sense of responsibility to the project.
I knew who to talk to if I had a problem.
There was plenty of work to keep me going but I never felt overwhelmed by what there was to do.
I was given some important tasks to complete and some less significant ones that would be later changed.
Will definitely be able to utilise the skills I gained in the future.
The Company
Was quite a stressful environment at times as I was working on site on a project with tight deadlines.
The placement was very well organised and I had all the information I needed before starting.
I had the necessary training to complete my job but nothing more than that.
Definitely an appealing prospect as it is a really great company with a welcoming team of people.
The Culture
I was on site so was not in the main office, thus missed out on a few social events.
Was quite expensive but that's to be expected in London.
