    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • From the start you are fully immersed in to the Savills working life. Every day you are given different tasks from the department members, such as finding comparables for a proposed development, calculating residual land values or filling out reports.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • Yes, I have found the whole experience has been very informative. The team were extremely helpful and thorough in describing what each job entails. They answered any questions I had, making sure I understood what I was doing. There were many tasks that I had never done before, that I know will definitely benefit me as I begin my education in Real Estate in September.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • I found it very insightful. I enjoyed the department overviews that they gave us as I hadn't heard of a few of the roles that they told us about during these and those that I had heard of I wasn't sure what the role entailed. It has opened my eyes to the various opportunities available and what other potential roles I may enjoy within the company.
