About You
It was very enjoyable because you get to meet lots of new people and learn lots of new things and everyone is very friendly and always willing to answer your questions and help you.
The firm make me feel valued because there were a lot of events that were organised and everyone spent a lot of time helping us.
The company pretty much help you through everything and provide you with all the support you need. Also if you have any questions they are always willing to help you and teach you.
The transferable skills such as communication and presentation skills really helped me with university because that is an important part of it when you complete projects and presentations. As well as that it really helped me thing about my future and what modules I should take in order to make the most out of university for my future career.
The Company
It was pretty well structure with training and then joining a project after the training was completed.
The atmosphere was very nice. Everyone was friendly.
The internship started with a training that lasted for 3 days so the training and development was very good. We were also told to set goals that we want to achieve during the internship and we were allocated a buddy and advisor to help us with our internship.
I joined a real project so that really helped me understand what it was like working at the firm but the department is not a department I would like to go into so it could of been better to choose a department I like.
We got a lot of information about the firm so it really helped us understand their company culture.
It was pretty good.
Everything Else
I was paid.
Yes, there were many opportunities to meet new people.
There were not too many network events.
Yes, there were lots of personal development and other opportunities for employees.
Without a doubt, yes. It was a great opportunity to gain some experience and develop skills.
