    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I thought the placement was great. The job really pushed you at times, however people were always willing to help you progress and approached everything with a positive manner. The intern community was all one of the biggest highlights and I have made some incredible friends here.

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Some tasks given to me were difficult as I had no guidance and didn't really no where to go at times. However this helped me grow, making me use my initiative and being proactive within the work place.

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    4/5

    2/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    2/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • there was a football team which was great, but not much else that took my fancy
