The Role

1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

I was told before getting the placement it was going to be a tough year but the one thing that helped me through were the people and the family environment. Everyone helps each other and the office is a motivational environment.

5/5

2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

Made friends for life. Amazing people at Enterprise across all areas of the business with your best interests at heart.

5/5

3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

I personally had a rocky ride management wise with my manager being off work on several occasions. However, my assistant manager and area manager were fantastic supporting me throughout.

3/5

4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

Enterprise is the busiest environment I have ever worked in. It was literally non stop but with the advantage that I was thrown into the job and learnt as I went along.

4/5

5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

I was 100% responsible for my own decisions and could use my initiative whenever I felt necessary. I was also in charge of my own development which I found extremely beneficial.

5/5

6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

Without a doubt I gained reusable and applicable skills: communication, customer service, decision making, HR, marketing, organisation and many more..

5/5

The Company

7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

The atmosphere in my office in Bolton was known as the fun office. We never stopped laughing but we were also the hardest working and highest achieving office.

5/5

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

Occasionally there were instances where there was not time to fit in extra development activities due to the busy environment. However, the interns were given quarterly meetings to discuss experiences and aid each other in our development.

4/5

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

I literally can't fault the company on their training and development.

5/5

10. What were the perks on your work placement?

Company Parties/Events

2/5

11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

I have been offered the chance to rejoin the company if I wish to do so after I graduate.

5/5

The Culture

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

I was the only placement student at my office. I would meet with other interns for nights outs and lunches. I also had many nights out with the area staff and my office colleagues.

5/5

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

I lived from home which was quite lucky and when we would go out in groups it never seemed overly expensive.

3/5

14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

15 minutes from Manchester and fantastic nightlife.. Couldn't complain

5/5

15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

There was always something going on amongst the company whether it be planned days out or a 5 a side football team for the lads.
