    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • I enjoyed the insight from both the content and organisational perspective. The workshops for Cyber Security and User experience design were both insightful and collaboration encouraging. There were no flaws in terms of the organisation of the event.

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?

    • The insight was more to enrich our understanding of the company and whether we would like to work there in the future. We did not contribute to the product the company is making.

    3/5
  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?

    • The amount of information we have received before the insight was a bit too small. On the other hand, the information about everything that happens in the insight was clear when we came there

    4/5
  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I got a chance to observe a real life experience in programming and system design. The group work exercises enrich my skill set.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • The Agenda was quite clear. I would have put some activities before other activities in term of agenda but the difference between the layout that I would like is not too big.

    4/5
  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    • Enjoyable and fulfilling

    5/5
  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • The have invested the time of their recent graduates in order for us to work shadow them.

    5/5
  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?

    • We have seen people working in the company from different roles: from just recent graduates to more senior staff.

    5/5
  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?

    • I was able to observe the company in its office so the people working in the company were constantly around us

    5/5
  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?

    • I liked the fact that we spend the majority of the deepening our knowledge in general technology aspect but not that much directly that the company does as the hole.

    5/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

    • My accommodation and travel expenses were covered by the company.

  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?

    • Yes, every day there were at least two events for which we got the opportunity to network with different people from the company.

    5/5
