    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • This was a great year which was very fun, I recommend this to anyone who enjoys interacting with people and is keen to improve their confidence with customers. The working hours are at times exhausting; however this is indicative of any big and successful company from time to time.

    4/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • My team was very close-knit and there was a great atmosphere in the branch. Praise would be given where it was required!

    4/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • For the most part of my placement, my area manager was non-existent and if the employees in my team were not as enthusiastic, motivated and ultimately fun as they have been, then I am sure I would not be as supportive of the company as I am. In general, support given at Enterprise is available at all times, with the ability to reach out to anyone in any position at the company.

    3/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Enterprise is a very busy company - my branch in Epsom was incredibly busy and whilst this was not a problem, one must be prepared to work very hard. People who shy away from hard work and responsibility should not want to work at Epsom Enterprise, or even Enterprise in general as lazy employees are often whittled out.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • As an intern, I had as much responsibility and input as my managers, and could impact on their ultimate decision-making.

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • Enterprise has provided me with great organisation and management skills which I will keep with me forever. My confidence has increased substantially as well, and this is something which University cannot teach,

    4/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • For the most part, the atmosphere was fantastic and couldn't have been better!

    5/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • The placement was very well set up, in the sense that I was in essence a graduate, as everyone at Enterprise is given the same treatment.

    4/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • On the job training was beneficial.

    3/5

  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?
  • 2/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • Have been invited to join the company upon finishing University, and there are many avenues available to take as a graduate.

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • This is not a job that comes with a social life. This is a great placement for work experience and gaining invaluable skills, but I am looking forward to the Summer and University again!

    2/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • On the outskirts of London, Epsom is an expensive area.

    1/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • Pretty nondescript.

    1/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • A few charity events throughout the year but apart from that the occasional pint with immediate work colleagues.

    1/5
