    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • Looking back at the Spring Week, I have enjoyed every moment. I felt constantly challenged during events and whenever I had a question or a problem I had the opportunity to go to an employee who would help me. At the end of every day, I felt like that I really managed to get things done which motivated me throughout the internship.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • Employees did not mind when I came to their desk to ask questions; they encouraged us to schedule meetings to learn more about the business and the environment. In addition, it did not matter whether you asked a senior or a junior employee for help. Both shared their experiences with us and gave us valuable advice for the future as well.

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • I always felt like I could ask for support or guidance. During the internship, our supervisors always helped us to find specific rooms or to solve problems which we had. In addition, we had a presentation about orientating throughout the internship on our first day. Whenever I needed help, somebody was there to help me.

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • The internship helped me to develop a lot of skills which are not only going to be beneficial for my studies but also for my daily life. The program showed me how important teamwork skills are and how crucial communication skills are in the daily interaction with my friends and colleagues.
