    Support & Guidance

  • 4. How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?

    Culture

  • 5. What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
  • It is very friendly and relaxed, as the company is comprised of a relatively small and young team. Nevertheless you are expected to deliver good work and be proactive in contributing to the success of the company. There are opportunities to assume more responsibility if you seek it and demonstrate that you are capable, which I think is good.

    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • I enjoyed it because I was able to learn a lot and assume a lot of responsibility. The team is very kind and helpful which was great. The only parts I did not enjoy was the lack of social interaction, as the work is hybrid, but most people work fully remote. However, this was also a positive aspect of the placement as it meant I could work while travelling.

  • 7. Would you recommend This Way Up to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to This Way Up
  • I was quite unsure about what I wanted to do for my placement and this role was great because I got to do a variety of different tasks and work with brands of different sizes. If you feel similarly as well then I would recommend that you apply and simply be yourself. The recruitment process is much more relaxed than at other places, they just want to see if you would be a good fit.
