The Role
This was by far the most fun and exciting internship I've had.
I really got the feeling that my work and effort were being valued and noticed, which is always a great thing!
I had extensive support and multiple colleagues who were always available to give me any additional guidance when necessary.
Quite busy, but in a good way. There is nothing worst than getting a job in which there is nothing to do!
Most of the responsibilities I had were personal ones which even though nobody had set explicitly I felt that I should take them on.
Apart from solidifying my previous skills with valuable experience, there were also quite a few new tricks and tips that I got the chance to pick up while the internship took place.
The Company
Hands down, a wonderful bunch of people!
Organisation was not an issue.
The company made sure and invest a hefty amount of time so as to get every intern up to speed.
Working from home
Healthcare/Dental
Very appealing, to say the least.
The Culture
An incredible social scene.
I didn't have to move from my original area.
I'm not really interested in the 'NightLife'.
Plenty to around!
