The Role
Was a great way to apply the theory learnt at universtiy
Everyone was generally nice and helpfull
would help whenever it was needed
Could have been busier at times.
I ran my own project, whilst doing other work aswell
Learnt skills which i might not have come across, if just studying at university
The Company
Atmosphere seemed pretty relaxed, generally friendly
They had a lot of students, and you would simply take over the work from the previous years student in your department
Had to learn to use various new software and equipment
Would consider in future
The Culture
Lots of students around the company, could make of it what you wanted
Reasonably expensive in certain areas
Lots of pubs/clubs in the surrounding towns
Not too much company related stuff went on outside of work
Details
Placement (10 Months+)
