The Role
This experience me made me grow as an individual and as a professional.
There was a good comradeship between interns, are tutors were always able to listen to our opinions and feelings answering with professional tips and personal advice.
Every time I asked I was answered.
I was involved in monthly projects which signified working on challenging personal targets on a daily basis.
I was able to give creative insight when editing social media posts.
I took this placement after finishing my studies, but in terms of people and operations management when I will have my own company I will definitely look back at Free Holdings.
The Company
Warm and stimulating - a good focus is given on music and after-office moments at the pub.
The placement followed the company's projects, giving us a taste of a fast-moving, profit-oriented business.
Interns are clearly the engine of the company! They were interested in my future projects since they are always recruiting new talent.
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
It is clear that who is able to shine can be involved in the company covering the role most suited to her abilities and the current needs.
The Culture
Every Friday colleagues love to get along and have a glass of wine together with the management team. Sometimes a small bunch also go out in the weekends - a great thing for somebody you is new in town!
Fulham is a quiet yet cosy residential and safe neighbourhood. Lots of friendly families, small shops and nice restaurants.
The are a few pubs, a great night club and the area overall is really well connected to the City
