The Role
I had a great time and learned so many valuable skills!
I felt like everyone was happy to have me as a part of the team.
Everyone made me feel really at ease to ask questions whenever I needed. I was never afraid I'd be looked down on for it.
I was busy, but it was always a new learning experience so I really enjoyed it.
I felt as though I was a true member of the team. I was given responsibilities of a regular employee.
I think the skills I learned will follow me to any position I have in the future.
The Company
It was lots of fun! Everyone was always positive and cheerful.
It was great. I was never sitting around wondering what I should be doing.
I got lots of one on one training so I felt really valued.

I would love to receive a position here and believe the skills I learned during my placement would give me a good chance of that.
The Culture
It was easy to make friends with others and feel right at home.
Cost of living was reasonable and nothing more than what I'm used to.
We always had an array of places to go to enjoy ourselves.
We were given lots of options for joining in on fun activities.
