The Role
Out of all my friends I gained the most experience and got the best perks!
never made to feel like 'just an intern' - was really made an integral part of the team
Experience with interns means they knew exactly how to develop me throughout my year
I'm giving this rating a 5 because overall I would say I was a little stretched, sometimes to a great extent! However other weeks the workload was ok. I think being slightly stretched has really helped my development though so I am greatful it was like that!
Obviously i wasn't running the department, I was mainly admin support but what I was producing was sometimes very critical and helped larger projects of great importance. I was also able to initiate a couple of strategic things during my time which was excellant!
