The Role
Really enjoyable with a wide variety of work to do.
A friendly, family environment. felt like part of the team from day one.
Had a 'buddy' and manager who regularly checked on me to make sure I felt comfortable and were always on hand when I had questions.
work was a little slow due to being the summer holidays but they always found items for me to learn about.
A suitable amount, some tasks gave me a strong responsibility, whilst others were less so. A good balance.
Definite skills that are transferable to all aspects of my degree and jobs beyond.
The Company
A great, friendly atmosphere.
1st week was at head office in london, for all interns to meet and have an induction. Given a laptop for the internship and all went without a hitch.
Spent a lot of time and effort, first week at head office in london. No expense was spared, felt very valued.

National Travel
Company Parties/Events
