Skills
- I've learnt many new skills at this internship - I've developed exisiting skills a lot and am much more confident
Responsibilities
It depends on your supervisor I think. I had a lot of responsibility once I had finished a few joined lab sessions and shadowing.
Support & Guidance
Plenty of support not just from your supervisor, you can ask anybody anything.
Culture
Very relaxed and comfortable, very nice atmosphere. Still professional but you never felt like you couldn't say anything or point out issues or ask questions.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed it very much and wish I could've been there longer.
Yes
Be yourself because they value strength in diversity. Make sure you have the heart for helping people on a global scale. Network as much as you can, everyone is happy to talk about their projects or queries applicable to your current situation - they've all been there.
