Skills
I have improved my report writing technique and interpersonal skills through talking and meeting many new people throughout my time at Savills.
Business Insight
I realized that Savills have a lot more roles to offer than I thought. Kindly some people from other departments offered to talk with me and show me what their jobs entailed which was super helpful!
Culture
Extremely friendly, very welcoming and caring. I was invited to many events which I was not expected to be invited to even on the first week. The girls I worked with always involved me in everything from conversation to offering me drinks and taking me to their meetings.
Your Impressions
I thoroughly enjoyed the insight surprisingly more than I thought I would. It has really helped me understand what a career with Savills would be like and how lovely and friendly everyone in the company is. I would definitely come back.
Yes
I would advise to make your cover letter personal and not generic and be yourself during your interview! I think from experience the most important thing is to be positive, friendly and willing to learn.
