The Role
The internship was a real good experience and provided a true reflection of what working life would be like with firm.
The staff were really welcoming.
For each task I was given clear instructions were provided and someone was always around to ask for help.
At times I wasn't busy enough but this is because it was a quiet period for the department.
I was given a basic level of responsibility
The skills I developed during my intership will be really useful for me in the future. I have also learnt more about myself as person through this experience.
The Company
Typical office atmosphere.
The placement was well organised and had a really good induction programme. Some work was planned in advance however most work during the internship was organised on a daily basis.
There were a variety of additional training programmes and different sources available to gain more knowledge.
Flexi Time
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
Still waiting to find out if I have an offer.
The Culture
Social events during the induction an final event were really good fun.
Reasonable costs.
N/A
There were events being organised however these were taking place after the internship.
