The Role
It was enjoyable but long hours and varying levels of engagement
Best part of my internship is the team I'm working in
Most guidance given by graduate on team
Hugely varied, never too busy
Varied throughout placement
Hopefully help with second year internship and eventually grad position
The Company
Hard working but some social chat
A few set backs in the first couple of days, but nothing huge
Completed all mandatory training with my team
Subsidised Canteen
Subsidised/Company Gym
Would depend on stream I'm placed in
The Culture
Among fellow interns, yes
Fair, cheaper than the midlands/south
Amazing, continuation of university
With some grads
Details
Internship (1 Month+)
