The Role
Wide range of different jobs to do, managers support all the way through.
Felt a part of the team from the very beginning.
Was given a full brief before all jobs and the ability to ask fro assistance whenever needed through out the internship.
Always had a wide range of different task to be getting on with.
I was responsibility within reason, i was able to carry out meaningful tasks.
Definitely assist me with my studies all the way from the computer skills to the product knowledge.
The Company
Everyone makes you feel welcome but at the end of the day you are working in an office so it naturally has a dullish atmosphere.
When i arrived all the work was set and i had a timetable.
They have invested alot of time in me throughout the 10.5 weeks
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
I have secured a place on the grad scheme.
The Culture
Yes the HR team ensured there were events to network with fellow interns.
I lived at home so free, i know for other interns it was reasonable.
Bournemouth is a good night out......... the beach!
There are sports clubs etc you can get involved in.
