    The Role

    • My colleagues were very welcoming and were extremely supportive in helping me complete my daily tasks.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyPlacement Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions (my supervisor) gave me all the support and guidance I needed during the internship; I cannot speak highly enough of his input during my internship at JLL.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • I had plenty of work to do, but at no time did I feel overwhelmed. My colleagues support was vitally important to help me complete my daily workloads.

    • I was involved in valuations of large portfolios of properties from day one and also inspected the built structure of these properties. This is essential to providing clients with professional and sound advice.
