Fraud, Insolvent, Investigation department Administrator Review

A great deal, consequently being offered a training contract and will return after University.

A lot, right from the start I was included in high profile case work. I was also included in networking events.

I had an interim and annual appraisal which was very useful for setting and measuring goals. Without asking I was provided with feedback on work, and senior management including Director/Partner took the time to sit down with me and explain situations. This was also provided across departments which was most pleasing.

Very busy, the opportunities were there to be taken and should you wish to you could work as much as you wanted!

A great deal. I often traveled domestically and abroad on my own for relevent case work. I was also the administrator for a secure email network. On concluding my placement I was responsible for handing work over.

Management of time and work has particularly since returning to University. I had several training sessions and in particular producing legal documents and witness statements has helped my written work at university and also very detailed tuition on Excel has helped my econometrics modules and dissertation at university.

Extremely motivating. I was positioned between two directors whom relied on me to complete tasks that were above my grade. Which was really motivating. There was also a good sense of reward when work was completed on an individual and group basis.

Very well organised, I was assigned a very good buddy who assisted me in the beginning. I was also always in touch with the HR team whom were interested to hear how it was going and if I needed any help.

The firm put you through a lot of training at the start, completing two week long courses on Recovery and Reorganization at their dedicated training facility. There was then the opportunity to undertake just about any course that could aid your development and when a course was required i.e. I needed to understand legal documentation, the firm organized one. I was particularly impressed as I was a placement student. There were also several more compulsory courses. There were two weekly updates on our field.

I was offered a contract before I left, which I signed to undertake the ACA exams within my chosen department with the opportunity to work in an international office.

Yes, I had a great relationship with a few of the placement students. But also the graduates. The opportunity was provided to mix with the other placement students and graduates. All were treated together.

The cost was particularly high as I lived with 5 minutes of my office, however I chose to do this so I could manage my triathlon training and maximize my time in work. The cost could easily be minimized my living out of the centre and using a student oyster card.

I was based in the City of London so this was very prevalent.

Yes, I was training for the UK Ironman during my placement so I was training twice a day 5 days a week which I balanced around work. I also started the London GT Running Club which I will take over when I return.
