The Role
Amazing people, amazing company.
Never felt inferior, always treated as an equal
I was very supported and when I asked I always got guidance
Sometimes had to wait from responses from other associates, but always had other work to fill that time. My line manager always checked up that I had enough to do.
So much!
It will be so helpful for my degree and I'm sure key in my future career
The Company
Great atmosphere, everyone is approachable and really helpful, and everyone makes time for you. Worked in a great really outgoing team who helped me settel in extreemly fast.
Very well once we started, especially considering this was the first year a proper internship programme had ran.
Huge focus on personal development thoughout the organisation. I had a personal development plan for my time here, which I went through with my manager.
