About You
Very enjoyable and educational
I was treated like an adult and taken seriously
The projects were overseen
It was purely based on the company rather than University skills
The Company
Clearly outlined and detailed
Friendly and serious
N/A
Networking was a chance to question what went on, but little course content on day to day
Very easy to understand what the pros and cons were by meeting the people
It has made me want to go into professional services
Everything Else
I was paid up to £50
Evening meals and day time question and answer sessions which were very useful
They were fun and informal but in a formal setting. A sit down meal and a great way to meet the partners at the firm. Stayed up until midnight chatting about careers and advice
Not enough time to mention extra activities
If you want to find out about a firm in a couple of action packed days then I recommend it!
