    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Overall work placement was excellent... as long as you are on a placement to do some actual work!

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • It is a small team and they expect everyone to muck in so I felt pretty like one of the team

    4/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • I had two excellent manager who were very supportive and great coaches

    4/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Very busy. Perhaps sometimes a little too busy but it was fine as the work was so interesting

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • Well I got to manage my product which had a budget. And at the end of my placement my boss left so they had me managing our Partnerships until someone new was recruited. I couldn't have expected more!

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • It was extremely beneficial. I went into the final year with a more mature approach to my work and my final year results were far stronger than previous years. A good work placement could make that vital difference

  • Nothing to complain about really

    4/5

  • Company Parties/Events

    Staff Sales/Staff Shop

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • It was more about the social scene with other Avis staff. There were not many placement student

    4/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • Outskirts of London so fairly costly in comparison.

    3/5

  • The local area is awful but central London is a 15-20 minute train away

    4/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • There were stuff we used to organise like work 5-a-side tournaments. The company is fairly good at those sort of things. There is also a dedicated social committee

    4/5
