    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Overall I had a very fun year. I developed a lot of skills, went to a range of events and was given amazing opportunities I wouldn't have been given anywhere else. Aside from having my job, I had a number of other responsibilities in and around the company like writing for the internal magazine, being on the charity board and organizing charity days.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • I was welcomed from day one, even by more senior staff. Now I feel like I'm so close to everyone!

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • Along side the 3-4 reviews were given yearly, I was also given monthly development meetings which focused on my personal development. I found this super helpful especially because it allowed me to focus on developing skills that I wanted to improve. I was also paired up with a more senior mentor who was always available to talk to me about any issues.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Super busy, as well as my role, I had a range of extra curricular I was involved in. Plus you get people coming up to you asking you for help daily!

    5/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • I dealt with a lot of large accounts and it was my responsibility to handle the coordination of these. I was given a whole charity day to project manage and organize, which in the end ended up raising more than £11,000.

    5/5

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

    5/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • I would say very organized. We had intern projects and training throughout our year. One thing I would say is for there to be more of a training structure in our actual roles.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • We had a range of training as part of the on hire process. There are training classes that are open to everyone that I would have liked to see more of however.

    4/5

    Sports and Social Club

    Company Parties/Events

  • Very appealing. The career progression in Enterprise is very structured and its a company that invests in its employees.

    4/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • Enterprise organised two full intern days out, one was segwaying and the other one was laser tag which we had at the start and end of our placements, they were super fun! I would have liked to see more social outside of work events organised by HR though.

    4/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • Egham in Surrey is relatively reasonably priced. I stayed in a flat with a landlord and paid £500 a month. This was in a near by area.

    3/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • Apart from a pint after work on a Friday, there wasn't much nightlife.

    1/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • Enterprise has so many committees and groups which are interested in a range of things. Wellness Committee, Charity Committee, Diversity Committee. All of which run external and internal initiatives and events.
