The Role
I really enjoyed it here. The work was challenging for the most part with just a bit of photocopying. I felt involved.
When I was applying, everyone said it was the people that made it - its true.
Everyone had time for me - and I needed most if not all the help I got
Some days there was nothing to do but that was rare. More often than not, I would say that I was almost too busy - especially in the last week.
I was given exactly the same stuff as a first year graduate.
Its good experience to work in an office and see if its for you. I will have to wait and see if it helps with uni work
The Company
Fun but when we needed to work, everyone got into the work so a good balance.
The whole scheme was very organised from the off - I was impressed.
We had one to one meetings every few weeks to make sure we were ok. I was lucky as I got to work in other departments so its worth askings and that was a lot different so helped.
Financial Bonus
I would be interested - I just wish someone had told me the office where you intern is the office you get offered.
The Culture
Very social - went for meals and drinks after work a lot. Not good for the money however.
I go to uni here so all my accomodation etc was paid for and I can walk to the office.
Leeds...yeah
The company didn't set anything up but there is everything in Leeds.
