Overview
My role consisted of doing frequent desk research and data handling with my team as well as using PowerPoint to make slides
Skills
I have significantly improved my commercial awareness in addition to developing my collaboration, presentation and communication skills
Responsibilities
I was given some responsibility when working on my project throughout the placement but had support available when I needed it
Support & Guidance
I received a lot of support and guidance throughout the placement not only from my team but also from the early careers team and the graduate talent managers.
Culture
The company culture was great, I had a healthy work-life balance throughout the placement. The working hours were somewhat flexible and I was not expected to work over time. The people I worked with and the other interns were also really welcoming and supportive so I did not at any point feel excluded.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed my placement to a great extent. I have learned a lot about the company and the energy industry along with the skills needed in this sector. For the analyst stream we had some development opportunities but it would have been nicer to have a few more. The placement was structured well - I did not feel too overwhelmed at any point and deadlines were spread out. I was also able to build good relations with the other interns and the people I worked with.
Yes
Be honest in your application and do some research about the company and industry when applying
