The Role
I found it to be a very enjoyable learning experience.
I made friends who I'll be able to network with in the future.
They guide you well without getting upset if you don't understand something right away.
I had things to do at all times.
I was in charge of getting certain tasks completed each day.
The skills will always be valuable to me.
The Company
It was a great atmosphere to work in. Positive and professional.
Things ran well for the interns involved in the program.
I felt like the company was glad to have me as a part of their team.
Flexi Time
Sports and Social Club
Subsidised/Company Gym
I'll be turning in an application to them in the future.
The Culture
We all formed a bond while we went through the internship. This lead to us spending time together away from work as well.
Cost of living did hinder my fun a bit, but it's still possible to enjoy yourself.
It was a great time each night I spent out. There's a lot to do in London!
There were no organized events, but we always had things to do together.
