The Role
The general work I had to do and the staff made the year very enjoyable, however the work expected of you as an employee challenging at times
Very good relationship with collegues
At times very busy however is to be expected with the job
The skills developed won't really assist me in my degree (Business Management w. Economics) however I have learned some very valuable skills relating to the workplace and generic workplace practices which will be useful post university
The Company
Atmosphere most of the time was enjoyable and fun, a lot of banter in the workplace, however can be stressful sometimes but that is expected with a job
Very organised
A lot of training and development
Very good promotion opportunities if you work hard enough!
The Culture
Standard living costs
I lived at home during my placement
