The Role
Very enjoyable.
It took my colleagues a while to realise what I could/couldn't do.
Great guidance given freely by everyone at senior positions within the company.
Work hard and days are normally 9-5.
As much responsibility as I needed as an intern.
Great chance to practice soft skills e.g. presenting and teamwork.
The Company
Good mix of people.
Large team of people dedicated to making the internship run smoothly.
Can take as much training as you like - encouraged by managers.
Company Parties/Events
Most interns secure a job offer.
The Culture
Most interns live in local uni halls together creating a great social scene.
Fairly cheap.
Great.
Hundreds of opportunities.
