    5/5

    • Well organised undergraduate scheme

    5/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • We received a lot training but it was fairly basic but not always tailored to our level. I think this area could be improved by acknowledging what people already know and what they want to be trained on.
