The Role
I enjoyed my internship at C&W Manchester immensely. I was given lots of responsibility and a diverse range of tasks to do.
I felt very valued by my colleagues and felt that work I carried out was appreciated.
I was given an introduction package and introduction conference call with the rest of the interns about business etiquette and how to make the most of my placement with C&W. My supervisor and buddy were both very welcoming and always available if I needed a chat.
Always had tasks to do with ongoing projects for clients.
I feel I was given a reasonable amount of expensive with feeding back and direct contact with certain clients.
I feel the skills I have learnt at C&W shall assist me when I go on to be a graduate surveyor and sit my APC, understanding more about office agency and how the different areas work. Using all the programs and websites to gain market information from shall be helpful throughout my career and my studies.
The Company
Very easy and relaxed with everyone chatting.
Very organised
Reasonable amount with information and knowledge being passed down.
Company Parties/Events
Great business to work for; the graduate scheme seams very flexible in terms of location and areas you wish to gain a rotation under.
