IT Intern Review

I enjoyed this internship a lot. It was the best place I have ever worked in. I was given to work on a project and then I had to make a presentation and present it in front of the senior managers. In conclusion, I was very happy to do this intenship.

I felt very appreciated and valued by my all of my colleagues from day one. I was very happy to work near their desks. People are very professional and treat everyone equally regardles of their level of experience. It is normal to go out with your colleagues during lunch or after work.

I was given a lot of support and guidance from the day one. I was able to get help whenever I got stuck or was not able to solve something by myself. As a result, their support and feedback helped me to learn more new things and improve much quicker.

I was very busy from my first day. I had to learn new technologies as quickly as possible and start applying them on my daily basis to deliver a project. As a result, I felt involved in the project and I was very happy while learning new skills and working on the project.

I was fully responsible for the given project as I was the only one who was working on it. I really enjoyed that because all responsibility was on my shoulders and I had to plan it by myslef as well as effectively manage my time to be able to complete the project on time.

The skills I developed and training I received will help me in my degree studies and beyond a lot because I was working with the latest technologies to deliver the given project. This internship helped me to develop both technical and soft skills. Also, I learned about different areas within the business.

The general atmosphere in the office was very good because all of the people are very friendly, supportive, polite and highly professional. This makes you feel welcomed and it is very enjoyable to work in such kind of environment among happy people. I think there is nothing that could be improved.

All the internship was very well organised because I was given all needed requirements and I knew in advance what needs to be done which helped me to organise myself and plan my steps ahead. All the major meetings and learning sessions were booked and visible from the first week.

I believe that the company in terms of personal training and development highly invests in people. It can be a training course which you would do online on your own. It can also be a meeting where more experienced member of the team would help to understand some advanced concept.

I think it is really difficult to get into this organisation as there are only being offered graduate schemes for people who want to become traders. Also, they are looking for people who already have few years of experience if you want to get a permanent role different than a trader.

I felt that most of the students were very keen to get to know each other and socialise after work or even go for a lunch together. It was a great opportunity to know them personally and spend time together outside work. Also, it gave an opportunity to meet their friends.

The area of living near the company is very expensive because it is based in London zone 1, Victoria area. There are some really great street food markets which are not expensive and are open during the lunch time. Also, there is a big variety of shops and restaurant around that area.

There are some great places to choose from to go to and spend the night. However, it is not as good as compared to the other areas in London. Also, it is very expensive in this particular area and most of the products and services, in my opinion, are overpriced.

There were not that many activities organised by the company to get involved in after work. However, the ones that were organised were a really high quality and I really enjoyed taking part in them. In one of them there was a chance to meet other people who work in the company for several years.
