The Role
Very much part of an enjoyable team
Someone was always there if I needed help
Varied depending on time of moneth, but could always find something to do
I was very suprised to find that I was given huge amounts of responsibility, brilliant experience!
The Company
Was in finanace so sometmes a bit quiet, but workeed alongside other students which livened the place up!
Upto to yourself to do extra courses if you so wish
Flexi Time
Sports and Social Club
National Travel
Financial Bonus
Company Parties/Events
Working from home
Very appealing, treat the staff well. The only reason I have not reapplied is due to wanting to experience other places
The Culture
Best part of the job!! Working with about 70 students in my ocation, had a ski trip, many parties, and have made friends for life!
Within London, so expensive
Had to take a 40min tube into central for a good night, although Richmond was always enjoyable
