The Role
Large variety of actuarial work made the internship very interesting
Colleagues were extremely helpful, friendly and supportive
When given work, the breifing and explanation of the task was always extremely thorough
Kept busy on the vast majority of days
Work was completed independently and I was relied on to meet tight deadlines
I expect many of the skills I have developed will be very easily transferable to when I graduate and get a full time job
The Company
Friendly atmosphere
Very well structured internship
Several training sessions including a 3 day induction
Company Parties/Events
Waiting for a graduate offer / rejection
The Culture
Many social events after work
London - very expensive
Awesome if you can afford it
In my short time there I was involved in several activities
