    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • The atmosphere at Ash was amazing. Everyone was fun and happy and loved to laugh. The birthdays and the cakes never seemed to stop.

    5/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • I feel the placement was well organised. I was given timetables when i first started which helped me to keep organised and know that i needed to work on and learn during the early stages of the placement.

    4/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • I didn't really ask for any personal training so i cant really make a valid comment. I do think that there were some opportunity but i didn't pick up on any of them.

    3/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • Company Parties/Events
    4/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • I would like to have the opportunity to go back and work with Ash Gaming full time but i have chosen not to because of personal reasons. Mainly because of London as a city itself is just not for me. But the job was great.

    4/5

    The Culture

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

    • There were many other placement students there. Around my age and we all had the same interests and were always with each other during breaks. We got on very well and will probably have become lifelong friends.

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

    • Being in the heart of London i did manage to live fairly comfortably but i wasn't really able to do much else.

    2/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • Nightlife isn't really my thing so i didn't go out much. Only for the Christmas Party which i did thoroughly enjoy.

    3/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • There were a few activities that you could get involved with from Gym, Football, Loosing Weight, Poker Nights and some others.

    4/5
