The Role
Taking on a new project was enjoyable.
As I brought a new skillset, I was valued by the team when completing tasks that required a different skillset.
My direct Manager was very knowledgeable and supportive.
The particular area I worked in was very busy.
I was given increasing amount of responsibility as I progressed through the internship.
I developed valuable skills for the workplace.
The Company
There was a good general atmosphere in the office, most people were friendly and there was also a willingness amongst members of the team to help others.
The overall programme was certainly well organised and it was noticeable that there was a good level of planning for what the programme would include
There was training sessions before commencing on the programme and you could learn from the environment while on the internship
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
Staff Sales/Staff Shop
I was offered a role subsequent to completing the Internship.
The Culture
There was several opportunities to make new friends.
The costs of living and socialising were as you would expect working in a financial sector.
As we were in London, there was a variety of places to go.
Most notably an opportunity to take part in Charity work
