    The Culture

    3/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • I personally didn't have much opportunity to get involved in this during the placement, but I know that there is a lot you can get involved with in the firm - maybe would have more of a chance if I was working here for longer
