    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • It was an amazing experience. Being a first year I didn't really know what I wanted to do in the future but the insight gave me the opportunity to see how everything works from the inside, what a wide range of positions are available and actually imagine myself working there and see how that feels.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?

    • It is an experience that encourages integration within the group so that everybody could feel comfortable and well appreciated for their contribution.

    5/5
  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?

    • Everyone was eager to help so definitely not a problem with that.

    5/5
  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • It's a really short time to develop your skills but what they are trying to teach you in two days are definitely of great help in anyone's studies.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • Really well structured for two days. You didn't have time to get bored. It would be nice to be a bit longer though.

    5/5
  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    • It was a welcoming, encouraging and 'teaching' environment.

    5/5
  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • They invest a lot in this programme. What we can see it's only the result of many hours behind that. Also, the programme is financially supported.

    5/5
  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?

    • It would be nice to have a work shadowing experience so you can learn more. You can try and imagine through the presentation but something more practical would be great.

    5/5
  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?

    • I think the whole insight is based on the company's culture and values so you clearly see how they are defined.

    5/5
  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?

    • I can say it has a direct impact on my future.

    5/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

    • They reimburse your travel costs.

  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?

    • Yes. There is a Partner's dinner on the first night.

    5/5
  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?

    • They were open but at some point because it's a really short insight, the students tend to network between themselves than with the guests.,

    5/5
  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?

    • Yes. There are loads of volunteering opportunities for the employees.

    5/5
  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?

    • Definitely worth it.
