The Role
Friendly people
They didn't see me as a undergraduate student but more like one of their own. It was really like family
Lots of counselling meetings and support whenever I needed it
Very busy workplace
Not a lot of responsibility as they weren't a lot of things I could do
I can relate to the things I am doing now for my finance, accounting and management degree especially for the financial reporting subjects.
The Company
Everyone was very welcome and fun and spent time with other colleagues during lunch time
Very organised, I was very impressed
They had an induction week in the first week in another city full of activities.
Company Parties/Events
I got a job offer from them and I m delighted
The Culture
Very welcome in socials
I lived in that area before so I knew how to get around, about 100 pounds a week
Very good but student life was weak as it was summer and clubs were always empty
Yes we had CSR days where we helped a school with their gardening
