The Role
The work was very interesting and I was exposed to a variety of clients and tasks.
The team was very supportive.
The support was excellent. People were happy to explain things to me fully and answer any extra questions I had. I would be left to work on my own but I knew I could get help if I needed it.
I always had lots to do. This made me priortise and gave me a great insight in to demanding and challenging career.
I was responsible for my own time management and work that I did. I also had two projects running along side my day to day work. I was not able to deal with clients on my own as I am not regulated but I could attend client meetings and work on client tasks as long as they were double checked by a consultant.
The experience I have gained is invaluable.
The Company
Everybody worked hard but there was a freiendly atmosphere.
only problems I had was a few technical issues with passwords and asses to drives when I started.
I felt a lot of time was given to the interns
I* would love to work for the company when I graduate
The Culture
Everybody was sociable it was just a little bit difficult between different offices.
