    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • It was enjoyable. As an intern I was made to feel as a valuable part of the team rather than a hindrance and work was always planned. Moreover there was lots of opportunity to travel for the firm which was fun.
