The Role
The social aspect completely exceeded my expectations.
My colleagues really appreciated my help.
The 'buddy' programme, and the whole structure of the internship gave us a lot of support.
Varied a lot, but overall it was a good balance.
In my first project I was surprisingly given a lot of responsibility.
They will help me with my future jobs, but I dont think they necessarily apply to my studies.
The Company
In the Stonecutter office it was a bit more dull than in the Clerkenwell office.
Extremely impressive.
We had some training at the beginning, and the internship itself was a huge investment with a lot of events.
Company Parties/Events
I was made a job offer at the end of my internship.
The Culture
Yes, the other interns were very nice.
London is expensive.
Quite good, a lot of pubs around and some bars.
We were introduced to some, but they wasnt particularly recommended or emphasised.
