The Role
I greatly enjoyed my placement.
I was valued by my colleagues from the start.
I was given support throughout the placement and was always able to ask additional support if needed.
It varied from day to day, but for the majority of the placement I was busy each day.
I was given more and more responsibility throughout my placement and took ownership of a number of tasks.
The work I carried out has been very relevant and a lot of what I've learnt through Uni has been applicable to my placement.
The Company
The atmosphere was very inclusive.
Very well set up.
The firm invested a lot in my development offering a number of training days and opportunities to further develop my skills.
Flexi Time
Subsidised Canteen
National Travel
Company Parties/Events
Working from home
Very appealing.
The Culture
There was a large group of placement students who started at the same time and there were regular events throughout the year.
Fairly expensive as based in London.
Based in London, very good.
