    The Role

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

    • I really enjoyed some aspects of my placement I feel like, they taught me how to always plan ahead in a business and how to mainly run a business

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Everyone was really friendly during my time here, they were always willing to answer my questions and help me when I needed it and now I feel like we have all become good friends

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

    • I was given support but not specific at times to further develop me as an employee, but they were helpful when I needed it

    4/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Quite busy most of the time mostly Monday and Friday were our busiest periods

    3/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • When I moved offices I was given more roles to do and I was running the office at times which helped me learn more about the business

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • Putting all the theory I learnt into practice and not just reading it from textbooks. It has also made me more organised and I feel like I can walk into another job and transfer those skills

    3/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • Very fun there was always a buzz in the office at times, yet we still worked hard

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • There was regular training which I liked, it was kind of like refreshing your memory which I found very helpful and the whole process was very good as I can expect it to be in another job

    5/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • At times they invested their time in me which was helpful and I feel like although I didn't achieve my goal I can still use the skills I learnt here elsewhere

    4/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • Flexi Time

    Financial Bonus

    Company Parties/Events
    4/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • If I could go into another role there I probably would, but not as a branch manager maybe something to do with marketing or human resources

    4/5

    The Culture

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

    • There was always a very social scene, which I though was quite good, we went on a few nights out, even if it wasn't a large amount of us going out

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • Quite cheap, which wasn't too bad

    4/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • In Grays very non existent, but Southend wasn't too bad for a night out as there were a few bars and clubs there.

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • There was 6 a side football which some branches setup between themselves and when I started there was some charity work they had done
