The Role
This was a great job and really suited me and what I wanted to get out of the year.
Your Job was a real job and I was made to feel like as stong as member in the team as everyone else.
Your management review could have been conducted more regularly but when you deserved praise and recognition it was given.
Its a real job so you bound to be budy, i liked this though as i would have to have a job with nothing to do.
Its a real job so we have responsibilities
All of the skills I have learnt will be usefull, just some more than others
The Company
We had a good laught amoungst the team as there are lots of other interns at HP. Also within your team they were fun.
You have a HR contact however things could have been better communticated rather than you having to find everything, which wasnt easy.
Within the first month i went on loads of tarining course to do my Job, It would have been better for further opportunities.

They have roles but not in Marketing at the moment, so perhaps.
The Culture
Great, we have a committed and did many things together.
This area is quite expensive but you can still do things.
Quite good, better than many towns and cities.
Only with the Intern community - not with work.
