The Role
This job was a rewarding experience. I enjoyed every day working at Renault UK and I have learnt a lot during a year. Being part of the launch of new vehicles was the best opportunity ever.
I met great people during this internship. My manager was great, always helpful and giving me support. I had also a very good relationship with the other interns. The atmosphere was very good.
As i said above, my direct manager was great with me! She has been always helpful, supporting me and motivating me. I had great relationship with her.
The launch of two new vehicle give us a lot of work. However it was always interesting days never boring. From my point of view, I truly prefer to have busy day then boring day.
I had my own tasks and more the months passed and more I had responsibilities which was perfect!
I learned a lot. This experience was useful as I developed strong skills during a year!
The Company
Most of the time it was good, friendly and fun atmosphere!
We had good training at the beginning but none during the internship.
Company Parties/Events
As intern and not graduate, we felt like there is no future for us.
The Culture
I lived in London center as many of the interns and the cost of living was very high for the wage we earned but the area was fun.
We had many after work and some nice parties in London center! However Rickmansworth is not the funniest place ever where a student wants to go.
Not really for interns.
