The Role
Exceedeed my expectations
Was involved in day to day business
Lots of guidance
Due to teh nature of teh business (process driven) sometimes it was hard to be actively involved although everybody made an effort to keep me involved as much as was practical
Due to nature of business certain roles were not suitable for an intern although we were allocated roles that were suitable and given time to work on these
The surrounding are very relevant to the finance elements of my degree course
The Company
Good Atmosphere & banter
Exceptionally well organised , a definate structure
A huge investment , both in the salary and in the training available to us
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
Would love to work here
The Culture
Interns arranged own social events
i lived at home so rent wasn't an issue but socialising & eating etc. was fairly expensive due to the rea.i spent £70/week on food and £100 a week on socialising
City of London...
The graduate team put on intern events for us to participate in such as Dragon Boating
