    4/5

    Everything Else

  • Paid insight, so can't complain, but not massive pay.

  • Got taken out by staff on my floor, however no formal events and had tob make individual plans if I wanted to meet other interns.

    3/5

  • Nothing formal, but opportunities to network if you were proactive.

    4/5

  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
  • Some Corporate Social Responsibility, but apart from that, not there for enough time to expereicne sports / other activities.

    3/5

  • Two week insight gives far more than any one week placement would.

    5/5
