  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • The Early Careers team at Centrica were super supportive and welcoming in the beginning, giving us the opportunity to watch presentations on motivation and well-being in the workforce, as well as presentations on time management and planning. The other interns were all really nice, and fostered a friendly collaborative environment. I enjoyed gaining insights into E-commerce and corporate life from a market leading perspective. The final presentation was a good opportunity to demonstrate my development.
