About You
Very enjoyable, learnt a lot and work shadowing was second-to-none.
Friendly people, always happy to answer any questions you may have.
Main point of reference was with the HR team who were very approachable. Also assigned a mentor who answered most questions.
Helped with degree to a certain extent but the knowledge gain around the markets was amazing.
The Company
Everything ran to time and never felt bored.
Other interns were friendly.
Allowed you to work shadow, with some employees taking a lot of time out of their day to talk to you.
Had a decent exposure to the everyday working life of an employee.
Was able to meet a large amount of the business in the short period you where there.
Pretty much solidified my career path for me.
Everything Else
Accommodation was provided for people living outside of London, with lunch and breakfast provided most days.
At least one event everyday.
Not too informal and not too formal.
No-one really spoke about this much, certainly wasn't highlighted.
Most defiantly, it was certainly one of the best insights I have been to.
