Got a really good insight into the industry, met lots of interesting people.

Part of my degree is in HR so it was very helpful. And in general it taught me lots of useful life skills - how to behave ina business environment etc.

depended on the day and who was in, but in general very relaxed, no stress at all.

Their graduate scheme looks really good - great opportunities.

-
most of the interns were really nice and we used to go out a lot.
- 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

what can say...London's not the cheapest place.
- 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
-
London !!!!!!

Hi, I have gained an internship for this coming Summer and just wondering if you could help me: I have received my offer over the phone and would like to know what happens exactly now. I know Reed will be contacting me next but is that over the phone or my post? And how long before I find out exactly where I will be? And who contacts me for that and how? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thankyou in advance.
