  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • Everything has been taking care of way before we (the interns) joined the company by the recruitment team and volunteers. The whole hiring/joining process ran smoothly and everything was under control. Same applies to the events ran for the interns, with no major problems happening.

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • There was a great social interaction between fellow interns and we all got to know each other (which is impressive considering the large number of interns here). The company facilitated that by organizing various networking events and BBQs and encouraging us to network as much as possible. We helped and shadowed each other as well as going out and networking outside working hours.

    5/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • The cost of living was not too high giving that it was very close to work, stores, shops, restaurants and the city center. Socialising was also affordable. Plus, the pay is good and it fully covered the living costs whilst allowing you to make some savings.

    5/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • I did not personally go out but my friend's experiences seem to be positive.

    4/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • Literally unlimited opportunities. Some of them were actually organized by the company, but the others were facilitated by the area I lived in.

    5/5
