The Role
I have extremely enjoyed my internship. It has be varied work within a brilliant team.
All the work I completed felt important, and everyone valued the input I was able to provide.
I had a buddy looking after me, and a counsellor. I could ask so many people for help and assistance if I needed it. I never felt like I couldn't ask anyone.
I was given a great balance of work. At times I was busier than others, but I always had something to do. It was a very good balance.
I was able to contribute to the team in work that would be seen by partners. Obviously it was reviewed by many people, but it was nice to be able to properly contribute to the team.
I learnt many things throughout the internship. I was able to practice writing emails to clients, and I was able to learn time management, and how to manage people's expectations
The Company
Friendly and welcoming
Very well organised
I had hours of training and a residential 3 days training in Manchester.
National Travel
Company Parties/Events
Working from home
They employ many graduates each year and the department I work in is growing.
The Culture
All the interns met up quite a bit, and the team met up a few times a month as well.
It was not too bad
Pretty lively
Plenty, and we were included right from the beginning
