The Role
Fantastic experience, with lots of exposure to different teams across the business and a variety of tasks.
Highly values, people very generous with their time. The central early careers team supported us all excellently.
Caught up on a regular basis, given good advice and support by my line manager.
Reasonably busy. When there weren't tasks to do on the desk, I had a longer term research project that I could work on.
Responsibility for support tasks given in line with my expectations.
Lots of skills development.
The Company
Quiet over the summer so not many people around. People were friendly and willing to share their time. Didn't encounter any hostility.
We were very well supported by the central early careers team during the internship.
We received structured training sessions in excel, presenting, communication.
Company Parties/Events
Healthcare/Dental
Very appealing.
