The Role
I enjoyed the various tasks and insights given to me.
The close nit nature of the company was one of the greatest things about the internship. I felt like a real part of the team throughout the 6 weeks.
The tasks I was set were challenging but management were patient and understanding, giving me all the help and support I required.
Some days were more hectic than others as is the nature of the business but on the whole I found I found myself neither bored nor too stressed out.
Although my work was constantly reviewed, I felt like I was given far more responsibility than I expected.
Although I am reading History, the skills of communication, time management, networking, and diligence are very useful. Moving forward in life these skills will be all the more essential.
The Company

The Culture
