The Role
I learned a tremendous amount, and enjoyed going to work every morning.
Everyone was eager to answer my questions.
Everyone in my office took time to teach me new skills.
I was working long hours, but I learned so much from it!
I really felt that I had made strong input towards my firm's decisions.
This opportunity gave me a new set of skills, and a great network.
The Company
It was rather business formal all the time.
I had a very clear set of responsibilities.
They made a great investment towards my initial placement.
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
Im looking forward to an ongoing discussion with the agency!
The Culture
There were numerous opportunities to socialize and network.
Central London can be quite pricey.
Weekends were spent with fellow interns in Leicester square and soho.
There were opportunities to work with local charities.
