    • 3/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • While I would not want to work for the company as it is too far outside my area of interest, I valued my time there and made the most of the opportunity to try something new.

    1/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • There were regular opportunities and we did have group nights out after work on several days.

    3/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • Living was reasonably expensive due to the proximity to the city centre, however I was able to bag some great discounts through going out during happy hours and weekday nights.

    3/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • The nightlife is great in Birmingham - particularly along Broad Street. There are a diverse range of clubs and bars to cater for most things we wanted to do.

    5/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • I was not given the opportunity, so I organised a couple of events myself, which proved to be surprisingly popular.
