They take on students every year so are well prepared and set up to work with students. This includes taking in to consideration any specific needs of being on an internship, such as
There is opportunity to take training and courses, which is enoucraged, but ultimately it is difficult to get on to the courses.
Above 25 days holiday
There is no graduate scheme, however lots of current employees had previously worked for the company as an intern.
The Culture
There is a large amount of interns, socialising is very easy! There is also a group set up on facebook to organise living arrangements etc.
London is very expensive!
London nightlife is amazing, something for everyone!
There were some opportunities, mainly the Disney Voluntears initiative.
