    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • Due to Covid-19 being able to attend a physical scheme was great. I was able to go on many site visits which were enjoyable and experience Savills culture firsthand. Obviously the limited social interaction was a shame but necessary. I could only wish that it was longer!

    4/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • No instances of ever feeling 'un-valued'.

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • Obviously my mentors/Heads of teams are extremely busy . However I enjoyed being left to get on with the project set on my own. Any time I felt stuck, I asked my mentor to help and she was more than happy to do so.

    4/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • Got to experience what is expected of a graduate Surveyor. This allowed me to have a more informed decision about what career path to choose. This experience has also showed me how much work is expected and the importance of a work-life balance.

    4/5
