    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • All the interns in the same office went to lunch together often and we are making plans to meet up even now the scheme has ended.

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • The few nights out we had in relation to the internship were mainly paid for by the firm. I lived at home during my placement and got the train in, which wasnt too expensive for the 6 weeks I worked with the firm, but for a whole year will be a lot more money.

    4/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • There are many bars and clubs near to the office.

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Not really, but there is definitely some activities that you can get involved with when you start permanently with the firm.
