Human Resources Intern Review

I had a great time during my placement. The role, department and social scene with other interns were all great.

I felt valued by my colleagues – as the year went on I was given increased responsibility and more challenging tasks. I was treated as a real member of the team which I loved.

I was given a huge amount of support and guidance during my placement year. I had weekly meetings with my manager to discuss my workload. Warner Bros. also run PPR’s throughout the year, giving you a great opportunity to highlight any areas you want to get more involved. Everyone in the team was approachable and willing to help so support was always there!

I was VERY busy during the assessment centres stage of the Intern Recruitment process. However the workload was manageable throughout the rest of the year. There are always new projects to get involved with, but you can always time to have a laugh too!

I was responsible for all aspects of Intern Recruitment for 2012/13 Scheme. My responsibilities stretched throughout the whole process from getting vacancies online through to preparing the contracts for the new interns. I also got to organise lots of assessment centres and interview days which was great. Getting to meet lots of new people and work closely with a variety of departments was a great experience. I was also responsible for all aspects to do with temporary workers within the business. This involved working closely with our Managed service provider.

There is a training programme designed especially for the Interns covering skills from presentation skills to understanding yourself and others which will hopefully help in my career. I have also learnt how to manage my time so much better – this should help when I return to University.

The atmosphere was great. Everyone works really hard to get their job done but is willing to have a laugh at the same time. There were also lots of team drinks after work which was great!

The placement was really well organised – I had a handover week with he previous intern so got given lots of tips and advice on how to do everything.

There was an internal training programme designed for us along with the opportunity to take part in an external course on the Microsoft Office suit which was really useful.

There is no grad scheme in place but the recruitment team keep our details and let us know about any opportunities we might be interested in. There are lots of ex Interns around the business at the moment!

There was a really good social scene – there were regular visits to the pub after work with my department. There were also lots of nights out with the other interns!

London is expensive – but you can still socialise you just have to find the happy hours!!

London nightlife is amazing! Something for everyone!!!

There were a couple of volunteer days advertised throughout the company.
