The Role
Really good fun!
Very well integrated
Could always ask when I needed help
Some days I just had too much to get done, but it made it more exciting!
As the assistant to the head of a corporate department I had a lot of responsibility
Lots of transferable skills gained
The Company
Hardworking but we had fun too!
Very well structured - lots of opportunities to try out new things too
More on-the-job training than official sessions
Flexi Time
Financial Bonus
Company Parties/Events
Above 25 days holiday
I have been offered a job but it depends if the funding is available
The Culture
OK, but could have been more activities
For a big city it was fairly reasonable
Big city - very good
Some - company run for example
