The Role
There have been initial difficulties as with any new job, but the support offered in second to none.
I am part of a virtual team, but I feel more connected than if they sat in the desk next to me!
There is always help on hand, you just have to ask.
It goes round in circles, start of the month is really busy and it slows down towards the end.
More than i would have expected in an intern role!
I can adapt my studies to the real life work I have learnt.
The Company
It is a massive office with lots of fun.
I get help whenever I need it, and I feel like I have learnt a lot so far. I never want to leave!
Lots, i was given a chance to visit an agency and lots of training opportunities.

Subsidised/Company Gym
I am waiting for someone to get back.
The Culture
AMAZING! Everyone lives together, we have nights out and it is great fun
Expensive- compared to the north!
For a small town, it was great!
From the three peaks to the events committee, there is loads going on.
