The Role
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
I felt a valuable member of the team.
My buddy and intern manager were both very supportive.
I enjoyed being busy as it gave me the opportunity to get the most out of the 6 weeks.
I was given the right amount of responsibility to the level where the things I was doing felt worthwhile and valuable.
The experience was invaluable and enabled me to develop certain skills.
The Company
The other members of the department in the office were always enthusiastic and positive even in busy and stressful periods
The entire internship was flawlessly run.
I have been offered a full time position in which I will receive support in obtaining my ICAS qualification.
Subsidised Canteen
National Travel
Company Parties/Events
The opportunity to work here full time is second to none.
The Culture
The other interns were all very easy to get along with and fun to both work and socialise with.
Bristol is fairly average in terms of cost of living in England
A good amount of bars and clubs.
I was fairly busy with work and with travelling to and from London to get involved much in this aspect.
