    • Universal is a fun and exciting place to work.

    5/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • The early careers department, including interviews and the programme are fairly disorganized. Once you are in your team, it is fine. But I would go to my team for support, rather than early careers.

    3/5

    • I could do whatever training I felt necessary. I attended lunch and learns, and there was always opportunities to improve your skills.

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • Less so in my role in legal. I need to complete professional courses before being able to apply to a role internally.

    3/5
