Very insightful experience. The internship provides you with a good understanding of the company. The HR team make a real effort to make sure you get the most out of your month with Savills., from arranging talks from a whole host of departments to arranging drinks for all the interns.

My time spent at Savills has been one of the most fulfilling placements I have undertaken to date. Although a seemingly short time, I leave the office at the end of my internship with the satisfaction of having made a lasting impression on my colleagues; the ability to make this impression has been fostered by a supportive team willing to dedicate their time to ensure I maximised the most of my time here at Savills.

Really enjoyed it - was a good insight into life at Savills.
The scheme was very enjoyable due to the welcoming atmosphere and variety of tasks given. The kindness of the team is one of the main factors that made it enjoyable. It was fun to research a project independently and form opinions about the viability of sites. My favourite experience was the day visit I went on to see a variety of sites and attend meetings. I would have liked to have gone on more visits, but this was the best the team could realistically provide.

I really enjoyed my 4 weeks at Savills. I felt that it gave a comprehensive and valuable insight into life as a graduate at Savills. It helped me fully experience what private planning consultants do, whilst also allowing me to see what other Savills departments are about in an informal way.
A really good placement; one which gave me an insight into what working in property is like and one in which I learned a lot about the world of business rates.
I really enjoyed my time working for Savills in Birmingham as a summer intern and there was a really friendly office vibe and everyone I spoke to was really helpful in letting me know what social events and other things were happening around the office that I could get involved with.
I felt like this summer scheme has given me a useful insight to what working life within savills is like and has also shown me what some of the different sectors are like.
I loved it. They were a really welcoming office and team. They provided me with jobs and roles which were insightful about the roles and responsibilities of a building surveyor as well as be helpful for the full time employees. They involved me in social activities and everyone made an effort to introduce themselves and I got to know all the different departments and there roles just by having short interviews with some of the employees.
The work was very enjoyable to undertake. The main value gathered from the tasks were the variety of them and the insight gained from members of the team. The tasks did not require too much industry/technical knowledge which is ideal for a summer student, however, skills such as time management and business acumen are developed during various activities in a workday.
