The Role
Most of the time it was very enjoyable, getting to talk to new people everyday, and working with many great people, most of which were a similar age to me.
Everyone seemed to value me while I was there, I certainly fitted in well with everyone, but beina girl in a golf sales team had its difficulties.
Every manager was very supportive and I was able to approach them easily with any problems or questions.
Most days we were busy, however during November and December it isn't as busy as it's the lead up to christmas. But over this time they gave us alternative work to be doing.
The Company
Everyone got on well. there was a lot of banter
Very well. There was good training and induction schemes.
