The Role
I enjoyed the varity of projects I was involved in and liked the responsibility I was given.
I felt as though my well-being was highly valued within my team.
I met up with my managers to have a catch up and felt as though I could raise concerns when necessary.
My days were extremely busy I very rarely had days where there was nothing to do.
A lot of responsibility was assumed as an intern however I was supported during the steep learning curve.
I have learnt how to manage my time effectively and prioritise better.
The Company
Very friendly work environment, people are happy to help.
The internship was very well structured, it was clear what is expected of me and how my performance is measured.
The training we received was excellent and the investments made on resources and sessions are invaulable.
Subsidised/Company Gym
The firmwide opportunities are extremely appealing
The Culture
Great social scene, interns are all extremely friendly and sociable.
Days are very busy and evenings are spent catching up on sleep. If you do however strike a good balance you can always find the time to enjoy weekends.
I lived in a great area for nightlife but only enjoyed it occasionally on weekends.
Internsfrequently meet up for social events and occasionally sports.
