The Role
I very much enjoyed my experience.
I felt valued by my colleaugues on the tasks i was allocated, but was aware that there were some tasks I was unable to complete due to not having enough time to be trained on everything (undestandable)
My supervisors gave me guidance on anything I required guidance on, and were always available to answer questions.
I was mainly busy but sometimes did find myself not as busy as I could have been.
I was given a lot of responsibilty over daily tasks.
The skills that I have learnt here will be invaluable when I start working full time.
The Company
Depeneded on the day!
The internship programme is set up very well, the first week was very well run and then events organized throughout.
They invested in our training a lot.
Subsidised/Company Gym
Company Parties/Events
Staff Sales/Staff Shop
Healthcare from home
Unsure yet but there is a good Graduate programme available
The Culture
Good scene with other interns
As expected in London
Good places, but expensive.
Good opportunities for community affairs.
