The Role
A very interesting placement that was equally challenging and fun.
Very much so.
During my year there were a number of projects that were completely owned by me.
The Company
I was part of a local, friendly team who were always willing to help out
A few hiccups with getting working laptops and registering on tools such as vacation planner within the first few weeks.
They allowed me to get involved in a lot of different projects and allowed me to sit in on a number of different meetings for the experience even though it wasn't strictly my job role.
Flexi Time
Financial Bonus
Company Parties/Events
Working from home
I would be happy to return as a graduate.
The Culture
Excellent community of interns.
London area was very very expensive to live in, despite London salary weighting.
