The Role
I learnt a lot from the experience and enjoyed meeting so many different people and hearing about all their experiences.
Everyone I worked with was so friendly and helpful.
I had two feedback sessions during my internship where I learnt about the positive aspects of my performance and any ways that I could improve.
I was given a good variety of tasks to do.
I was given some important jobs such as doing a client meeting which I thoroughly enjoyed.
I especially developed teamwork and communication skills.
The Company
Everyone knew everbody else which made it an extremely friendly office to work at.
I had a good variety of clients to work on during the internship.
They took the time to give me feedback which was very helpful.
Subsidised Canteen
National Travel
I am just waiting to hear if i have an offer.
The Culture
There was a fair amount of social events between the interns which I enjoyed.
It was fairly reasonable.
Had a really fun time!
There were a couple but it was fairly quiet because of being in the summer months.
