The Role
Absolutely loved it!
Everyone is incredibly cool and friendly.
Loads of support!
Lots to learn!
I felt equal to all other members on my team.
Learned vital skills I can use in the industry!
The Company
There is a ton of fun stuff going on in the office all the time and somehow the work seems to get done as well :p.
Very well organised, shout out to Danielle for organising it all brilliantly!
Loads of time was spent on lifting my confidence and teaching me new skills.
Flexi Time
International Travel
Company Parties/Events
Working from home
Can't wait to be back!
The Culture
Loads of socials to be going on throughout the placement!
Islington is on the expensive side...
I took a break from nightlife while I was on placement so can't really comment. I've heard it's good from other people though.
Expedia Code Academy, HCOM vs. EAN Cricket Match are too name a few of the cool things I did at Expedia on placement.
