The work was enjoyable, particularly during the period just after the middle when I was able to move onto more technical and involved tasks. It can be slow to start due to security reasons and waiting for access, but once started the work can move at what...
I very much enjoyed my placement with BAE Systems. This was my 2nd internship with the company and they look after their interns very well.
I rated this as 8 because I was placed in two departments. I did not enjoy my first department during my internship. I really enjoyed my second department, and if I had just been rating my second department I would have given it a 9/10.
I thoroughly enjoyed my work placement in the in-house legal department. The experience was unlike no other as I was able to understand more about the world of in-house law.
I enjoyed living in Glasgow for my placement with BAE Systems Naval Ships. I had never been to Scotland before and it was a great opportunity to live somewhere different. Its a good area as the placement is located in a major city. The people that work fo...
I very much enjoyed my work placement, I was given the opportunity to experience a wide range of work in different departments and then tailor my year to the work I was most interested in. As well as improving my own ability and knowledge a huge amount, I...
Placement is interesting and engaging although as the quantity of work fluctuates throughout the year, there are large periods with little to do. The nature of the business means that work can sometimes be quite exciting. There has been opportunity to vis...
The tasks that I have to do are both interesting and pose a difficulty that make you have to think about a solution which was important to me to not just sit there and tap in numbers mindlessly into a spread sheet. Both my team and other members of staff ...
I was placed in project accounting, this role involves quite a varied amount of tasks which meant my placement is enjoyable. At BAE there are a number of activities you can get involved in that require you to go out the office and you can have the opportu...
Brilliant experience. The freedom to choose where you want to work and what type of work you'd like to do. Flexi-time is such a nice benifit; being able to come and go when you choose really gives you the freedom, making work feel more like university.
This internship was great! The team I was working in made it a fun place to work and the projects that I were working on were both interesting and exciting. I would highly recommend this internship; its opportunities for travel and work in corporate-level...
Certain aspects of the internship I enjoyed more than others. There were some tasks that I got really engaged with and found very interesting whereas others I found quite dull just due to my personal interests. I really enjoyed networking with people in m...
I enjoyed the tasks I was set and the people I was working with. Most of my colleagues were super friendly and helpful. The company as a whole isn't very diverse. Personally I struggled with the moral complications of working for a defence company. Be...
I was at my insight for 2 weeks, and during my time i enjoyed my stay and learnt a lot about the industry. From the start i was welcomed and guided throughout my 2 week stay, with staff very happy to interact with me and answer any questions i had.
The placement gave me a lot of opportunities to work with many different systems and to work on a variety of teams from sys admin to testing to database engineering. While the people at times could be a bit of a downside due to the atmosphere and culture ...
I thoroughly enjoyed my internship with BAE Systems. I was provided with real work from day one and feel like I contributed to the work that my team did. I was given the chance to go offsite to Head Office, sit in meetings to better understand the differe...
Very interesting but slow at times
I very much enjoyed my internship with BAE Systems. I undertook a wide variety of work, some of which was stretching, and I could see that my work was useful to the project. The team were friendly and welcoming, and the HR support was good. I also got to ...
The work was interesting and varied and I gained experience which will be valuable when I go to interview for further placements and graduate positions. The location I worked was sometimes a bit boring and perhaps I need to be closer to home where I next ...
It was fun and exciting
