    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • I was really enjoying coming to my work placement every day as I knew I would learn, meet people in a stimulating environment. During the day, we do not notice that time passes!

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • We realise that there is few placements and therefore that our colleagues had put a lot of effort to choose us. Thus, the relationships with people are excellent and we are valued as part of a team and as part of the firm network.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • People tend to be extremely willing to share their knowledge and experience. This is a win-win process since the management need juniors to learn and be at the top so they provide excellent guidance and provide continous support

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • In this industry, it is hard to have a perfect balance, though the firm pay a particular attention to balance well the work among people, organising staffing meeting, tailoring team size etc.

    5/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • As an intern I was extremelly positively surprise with the level and amount of responsibility one can be given. Also it is possible to work with senior management. These responsibilities can be given very soon depending on motivation and performance.

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I believe there is few placement like this one where one can truly develop its skills. It is genuinely a place where we developed technical skills (there is a training as well) but also job skills such as working in team, managing time, being analytical etc.

    5/5

    The Company

    5/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • The internship set up is flaw less and this is really enjoyable !

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
