Most activities fun, a couple a little boring and seemed unhelpful.
Very friendly atmosphere and treated very well.
Lots of help from a number of different employees from different sections of the business.
Helpful advice for interview skills and applying for summer internships.
The Company
Very structured timetable clear and precise.
Enjoyable atmosphere with friendly and happy staff.
Many group activities but little feedback about how successful presentations etc were.
Very helpful advice from many different staff in different areas of the business describing what they do.
Very helpful to meet so many different staff and here personal opinions, particularly in an out-of-office environment.
Very helpful to hear about different areas of the business and exactly what they do.
Everything Else
Should be reimbursed in the future but this hasn't happened yet.
Lots of opportunities to meet staff, particularly a dinner event in the evening.
Lots of opportunity to talk to other interns, and a social event in the evening to meet staff. This would have been improved by more staff at the meal.
Personal chats with some employees were informative and helpful.
I would definitely recommend this insight it was both informative and interesting.
