The Role
Had a really good six weeks both due to it being informative and a good social environment.
Didn't work with any one who I felt treated me as just an intern, felt part of the team on every job I had.
So many routes of support, lots of people to ask that are happy to assist.
Range of business day to day. Dependant on what job you were on.
A good amount of responsibility given, felt the work I was doing was helpful and worthwhile.
These six weeks have been extremely useful for developing a great range of skills for the workplace that could be applied beyond university and at university.
The Company
Great balance of work and productiveness and enjoyment and friendliness.
Clear that a lot of work goes into creating program which is upheld by all involved.
Felt I have had endless opportunities to development myself and meet influencial people and hear about their career paths which is obviously invaluable.
Subsidised Canteen
Subsidised/Company Gym
Will be very easy decision to accept the job offer.
The Culture
Everyone is so friendly but quite busy and big buildings so the scene is lacking a bit.
London is expensive.
Great but expensive.
Not that many in internship but a lot when here more permanently.
