The Role
My team were extremely welcoming.
My manager offered regular catch up sessions and was willing to answer any questions work or career related.
I worked on a project so could just get on with it, rather than having to wait around for my manager to give me my next piece of work.
I was given lots of responsibility and opportunity to use my initiative.
The Company
There was a good work ethic but the team were also extremely friendly and up for a laugh.
The itnernship was really well organised with a wide variety of training and networking events throughout.
I feel the firm were keen to track your progress and also listen to any feedback on the internship.

An assessment centre is given in the last week to all interns looking to secure graduate roles.
The Culture
The interns were all really easy to get on with and we often met up after work to socialise.
London - always expensive!
Lots of nice bars.
We were offered the opportunity to watch the cricket in a corporate box at Lords.
