    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • The internship scheme had an introduction week to bring everyone up to speed. There were further 'lunch and learn' sessions where you could meet the other interns and learn about each part of the company. It was a valuable chance to ask questions and hear other peoples thoughts. Within Business Change in particular, the scheme had two presentations for benchmarking, which helped to develop my public speaking.

    5/5

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?
  • Incredibly friendly and welcoming.

    5/5

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • My manager was amazing, allowing me to shadow her to meetings and get a general understanding of the business. I was also lucky enough to go on a few projects, working alongside different members of business change, and take on some of my own small tasks.

    5/5

  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?
  • Since noone was shy and it was encouraged that we ask questions and explore, the insight helped me hugely in exploring what it would be like to have a full time job at M&G.

    3/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • M&G are flexible in where you would like to work; they accommodated for the fact that I didn't know what kind of job would suit me best. I was able to meet and discuss different roles with the relevant people.

    5/5
