The Role
I was really made to feel a part of the team and got involved in lots of events outside of the working hours.
My colleagues really took the time to explain procedures that I was not familiar with.
I was given the right amount of responsibility. The reports I had to write were proof read and there were templates I could use.
The internship has provided me with the skills I will need in my career that we have not covered at University.
The Company
Very good because there was organised training days and social events.
Sports and Social Club
Company Parties/Events
A great company that really values and welcomes its interns, so permanent employment prospects are extremely appealing.
The Culture
London is expensive, so after the cost of travelling into the city and then social activities in the city, I wasn't left with much from my pay check!
