About You
I really
I very much enjoyed it, I walkways had work to do, it was a relaxed atmosphere as everyone was so nice and welcoming and the work was interesting too.
Lauren (the person I worked with) was always teaching and supporting me and was easy to talk to.
What I learnt was very interesting as well as informative and I was unaware of everything I leant before my placement. It helped my knowledge grow.
The Company
They were very organised and the days were structures and planned before.
Though it was a desk job, the atmosphere was comfortable and was nice to talk to people around me.
They were always asking if I was okay, and would take time to talk to me after each day.
It helped me a lot, it was professional and interesting at the same time, I felt more mature after the experience and more prepared for work in the future.
I was given a tour and they explained the company's motives, competition and issues ect. I understood the company very well.
Very valuable as it gave an insight into more opportunities and a variety of paths for working in the future.
Everything Else
I was given money as well as travel expenses. I was very much grateful for this.
Yes, people would say hello in the elevator and converse with me. People on my floor would also say hello and talk to me and ask me questions.
I didn't get to attend any at the time as I was only there for a week, but I was told if I stayed longer there would be some.
Yes, they told me about marathons and how many people loved cycling. They also told me about a recent plan to go zorbing as a group!!
Yes!
