    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Everyone is very friendly and open minded. You can sit down with everyone and he/she will most likely be very patient and explain you what his/her job is.

    4/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • Everyone accepts you as a member of the team and hands you over tasks that will add value to them

    4/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • If you got questions they will help you out - be proactive, don't ask unnecessary questions.

    4/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • You can decide mostly how much work you will have to do - there are plenty of people you could help - it depends on how driven you are

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • Of course they cannot hand you over crucial bits and pieces during your internship - but the stuff was relevant for their daily business

    4/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • To be honest you learn a lot on the job. Hence a lot of interns from different degrees still flourish on the job. You will learn new stuff quickly. It helps of course if you have a degree in finance/economics since you have heard a lot of lingo before

    3/5
