The Role
Best work experience I have completed - so much responsibility.
Very friendly and helpful, and so welcoming.
A lot of support and guidance given by all colleagues.
Always had something to do, and could always ask for more.
Talking to clients and attending meetings in first few weeks.
Perhaps more training days would be beneficial.
The Company
Very friendly and talkative office.
More social events could have been organised, but overall very well structured.
Good first week of training, but perhaps further training over the internship could have been insightful.
Strong conversion rates from internship to graduate placement.
The Culture
Only 6 interns, but all very friendly and we all spent a lot of time with each other.
London - always quite expensive!
London - again great night life!
Squash court was great, and know there are numerous clubs and socities to get involved with.
