Summer Intern Review

The work which was given was quite interesting, there was new work provided everyday which made everyday unique.

The colleagues and other summer interns were very helpful and easy to get along with.

At every step there was guidance provided. This ensured that work could be done without any hesitation of asking questions.

Some days were fairly long however it was a very calm atmosphere and there wasn't much to do on some days

There wasn't much responsibility but the work given to us made a difference.

The skills that I developed during this internship will go along a long way. Client experiences, team building, are essentials skills developed during this internship.

The atmosphere in the office is very relaxed. Everyone is easily approachable and helpful. You can go to anyone's desk and talk to them about their experiences or how their day has been and they will love to share that with you. The socials were very interesting and a very relaxed where one can unwind themselves.

The internship was very organized. We were informed about our placements during the internship in the first week itself. We knew our schedules before hand which helped plan and perform better. If there was a change of schedule, we were informed well in advance. Overall, this has been really impressive and helpful.

In terms of personal training and development, the firm invests heavily in the interns. We are given access to various resources online and tools and many mandatory learnings which help us broaden our skills and harness whatever we have learnt in the past at university or other work placements. The firm is readily reachable if you want to access resources not available and ensures that the work is not hindered.

Future employment prospects within the firm is very appealing. The firm makes it clear that each of us has a place in the firm and we aren't competing with each other. This is something very important as this ensures team building and healthy relations with other interns from the first day itself. The firm also helps us at every step to discover what we would like to do and puts emphasis on our views and focuses on personal development.

Yes there was a good social scene amongst the other interns. We went for drinks after work and went for lunches together and made the most of the time we all had together in the office. Going forward, I'm certain we will be friends in future too.

Cost of living was fairly decent and socializing depends on where you want to go and how much you want to spend. Staying near the city center is expensive however staying a little away is decent and affordable for students. It all depends on the type of accommodation and the transport links.

The nightlife was very social. One can always go near the Canals or Mailbox mid week or on the weekends if they wanted to relax, unwind and have a good night. The city nightlife is quite lit.

There are opportunities available however due to the short duration of the internship it is not easy to get involved due to less availability. However, given a longer duration, one can easily get involved in activities outside of work.
