Service Sales Intern Review

Really good placements over all, if you are looking for a role were you have real responsibilities then this certainly offers you that. Be prepared to work hard but the level of exposure you will get I return is very good and you will be pushed and test to progress throughout.

Felt on par with my co-workers and was not considered and ‘’Intern’’ but more like a full time member of staff. Certainly the work load was the same. The office is a really nice place to be with lots of friendly people and it’s easy to ask for help.

Had weekly reviews with my manager in order for me to ensure that I was on track and also for me to find out if I was performing and how I could improve. If I ever had any issue I felt more the comfortable to go to my boss or co-workers about it.

Very busy every day, if you want and easy ride then not for you. If you want a really understanding of the corporate world and the long hours you are expected to work in order to get the job done this will give you that, rarely a day when you have much time to relax.

I had a very large deal of responsibility and was in charge of my own portfolio. This meant I had large sums that I had to manage on a daily basis. Despite this large amount of responsibility put on me I didn’t feel out of my depth at any time. If I needed support it was there but I really enjoyed being able to make decisions by myself.

Defiantly helped see the real life side to the theory I had learnt. The skills I had before my placement were improved and I learnt how to apply them in a corporate context. Over all it has helped me see what will be expected if you want to go far in the business world. If you want a real job as a placement then this is more than I ever thought I would have from my placement in relation to my duties and responsibilities.

Good quality atmosphere. Everyone was hugely friendly, and with a good social scene and outings with colleagues being a regular occurrence, made for a good working environment.

Right from the start, the company were keen to place the interns in various sales services on site, to learn and understand things in a practical manner. In addition, training courses were laid on, with interns being able to develop a good understanding of critical topics.

Extremely rewarding. The scope for personal development within the company is huge, and as a graduate must be one of the best ways to kick start a graduate career.

Very good. Regular outings meant it was easy to get to know the other interns. This played a big role in ensuring such a great placement experience.

Cost of living in the East Midlands is very low. This meant a high disposable income for many of the interns.

Good night life in and around where I lived and worked, although was slightly pricey in areas - not quite as good as at University.

Excellent. Take every opportunity you can. There are many ways myself and other colleagues helped out in the community during the course of my placement.
