Throughout the week we were given talks to by many different graduates who each shared their experiences with us. When shadowing a construction manager on site i witnessed the responsibilities he had onsite from such an early stage in his career and also saw how exciting it is to work onsite.

lunch and transport was paid for throughout the week for us.

At the end of every talk there was an opportunity to speak to the employee after. On the last day we had lunch with current placement students where we were able to exchange contact details and find out what they had been doing on their placement. There was also the opportunity to network amongst us.

Throughout the week we spent alot of time with each other and we set up a whatsapp group

Because a lot of graduates join mace from outside of London the graduates have good social events where they can meet each other. They have a whats app group between them and organised a ski trip for winter next year. The company also put on charity events to raise money for.

yes it was very informative and learnt alot about the industry.
