The Role
I really enjoyed it!
I was really involved and felt part of the team!
I could always ask my mentor, team leader and other team members.
Pretty busy
I was given a lot of responsibility, especially while covering for my mentor while she was on holiday and I took care of my own and her projects.
I have learned a lot about project management, time management and improved my communications skills in English.
The Company
Very good atmosphere, people getting along, working together to a common goal, motivated
Language Connect had a lot of interns over the years, they are perfectly organised.
I had a lot of training over the past few months, it felt more like a job not only an internship
Company Parties/Events
The Culture
We went on several dinners with all of the other interns, very good atmosphere, had a very good time with them!
London, do I need say more...
Lots of cafés and bars
There were various events organised, e.g. bowling. Also yoga was offered.
