About You
My time at Volume was extremely enjoyable. I enjoyed learning about the world of marketing while working in a excellent environment.
I felt like the work that I did was helpful to those who gave it to me, as they valued the interest and amount of effort I put in to help them. I felt valued as me being on work experience there helped them to become a better company.
I was given a lot of guidance with tasks that I was set. The staff took time out to support me with what I was doing, to make sure that I was able to do what was needed. I was also taught a lot about the marketing world and how its changing and adapting over the years.
The skills I learnt at Volume will help me in the future as I have gained the experience needed to work in an office environment. I've also learnt how to email in a professional manner and create briefs suitable for any task.
The Company
The programme was well structured, with meetings planned every day as well as activities and tasks set for me to do throughout the day.
Everyone at Volume is lovely, with an amazing atmosphere. Everyone is keen to help and make sure that you are doing well. The people are friendly and approachable.
The firm invested in me a lot, teaching me basic skills which will help me get a job in the future.
The work experience showed me what it would be like to work in a full time role, as the structure and environment all showed me what it would be like.
I learnt about the company culture and its values. Volume looks after its staff extremely well and goes by the idea that if they're treated well then the work will be better -this is true.
It was valuable in deciding what I want to do, and has enabled me to look down the route of marketing
Everything Else
Everything bought throughout my week was reimbursed to me.
I was able to meet the whole staff at Volume, and get to know everyone as the week went on
I was able to go out with other staff members during lunch and after work to get to know everyone better
I found out a lot about what goes on after work with parties and events held at Volume
I would recommend to a friend
