The Role
I thoroughly enjoyed my internship.
I was given real responsibility almost immediately and all colleagues were extremely approachable.
With open communication encouraged, I felt that I could really speak to my manager.
The day always went very fast as there was always something to do.
All interns were given real responsibility on important tasks so that they felt like they were really contributing during their internship.
Generally learning how to work in a global organisation was very useful and will greatly help with my transition into full-time work after university.
The Company
Extremely organised. Many events were set up just for interns and they were all very enjoyable.
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
I have secured a graduate job.
The Culture
All the interns were very close with many social events organised for out of work.
Depends on the intern.
Bournemouth has a very good night life.
