    The Role

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

    • It was honestly has been the best year, I've absolutely loved my time at the Cheapside office and I'll be sad to leave.

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

    • You are treated just like every other employee and are given the exact same responsibilities. There's no divide and each team is really close knit and you do become part of the 'hays family' very quickly. I have made some friends for life here.

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

    • You have so much training away from the desk and on the job so there is plenty of time to get to grips and learn about the role. Every manager is happy to help and a lot of time is put into making sure you have the support you need.

    3/5
