Supporter Experience Intern at Cancer Research UK

Cancer Research UK
Internship (1-4 Months)

I have really enjoyed my internship - I have learned a lot about the company, how it functions and more specifically about the directorate that I am working in: Philanthropy and Partnerships. My team have been incredibly welcoming and given me a good amount of varied work, depending on my interests, whilst still giving me freedom to explore different teams, through shadowing. There is a big focus on self-development in this internship too, which I have found rewarding, with a variety of workshops organised by HR. One thing I have particularly liked is the work culture - no one is ever too busy to have a coffee and chat with you and explain their role, or to help you out. I have really been introduced to networking in this internship!

Project Intern at Cancer Research UK

Cancer Research UK
Placement (5-9 Months)

3.7

I really enjoyed the placement because of the variety of work that I was given over my 6 months. I was able to prove my worth in the team and over time was given tasks that stretched my capabilities and taught me new skills. However it wasn't all positive. Sometimes I felt as though the jobs that I was doing dealt a bit too much with angry colleagues and a customer relations role isn't really my thing.
