The Role
I have absolutely loved it. It has been the best year of my life.
Fantastic work environment, very supportive and fun.
Can't fault it. We have two managers, a task manager and professional development manager. Both have offered unlimited support.
Very busy but I thrive on that so it was just right for me personally.
A lot. I often manage tasks and projects alone or even manage a small team.
I'm not sure what the rest of my degree will entail but the skills I have learned this year will stick with me for life.
The Company
Everyone is very friendly. There is a big intern community and everyone is very social
Very clear structure.
We have education sessions throughout the year.
