The Role
Had a fantastic 10 weeks
Everyone was very friendly and welcoming
The team would always make time to talk to you and help you through any assignment
Managed to get a good balance and keep busy throughout my time there, very rarely bored
Responsibility grew throughout my time there and by the end was left to work on projects on my own and trusted to deliver work on time
I have learnt vital skills about how to deliver work to a high standard and work effectively within a team
The Company
Very good atmosphere, team gets on very well
Very good set up, with presentations from different teams and challenges to keep the interns together
All senior staff in the office took time to train me as well as a specific training week led by an external firm at the start of internship
Subsidised Canteen
Sports and Social Club
Subsidised/Company Gym
Above 25 days holiday
Very appealing, and looking forward to starting with them next year
The Culture
Interns were very sociable and everyone got along well on organised socials and met up often outside of the office
