The Role
Fantastic overall experience - a must for any undergraduate looking to secure a dream job in the future!
Friendly, understanding and helpful atmosphere, would have liked more outdoor team activities.
Encouraged to make the most of the opportunity, received full support from my manager and allowed me to experience work in another department.
Work balance was near perfect, there was never nothing to do, plenty of opportunities to seek extra projects and milestones.
Plenty of responsbility, was put in challenging situations dealing with high-profile customers and executives, enjoyed the experience.
A hands-on experience in two departments; one customer facing, one engineering. Both taught me crucial soft and technical skills for the future.

An internship is like a year-long interview, you can really make your name and gain important contacts for future employment prospects.
The Culture
Transition from Uni to Work was seamless and the interns community was a major aspect, crucial to settling in and making new friends.
Swindon's a relatively affordable town.
Great memories from each night outing.
Charity events, volunteering, sports and social to name a few...
