The Role
It was brilliant. The work was fun and the atmosphere in the office was excellent.
Everyone was really great and tried hard to get you involved with whatever they were doing
All the time I was being coached by my direct supervisor.
There was always work to be done. However the work was never too stressful, there was always time for some fun.
I was doing all the work that full time employees were doing.
We had weekly presentations, really developing public speaking skills. I also developed very strong communication skills, the main focus of the internship.
The Company
There was music playing throughout the office, weekly games between different areas and everyone was up for a good time.
We were constant aware of our programme and never felt lost throughout the 6 weeks
We went through the training process that all new employees go through, so we weren't treated differently for being interns.
Company Parties/Events
There is huge expansion so it would be a very exciting prospect to get work there.
The Culture
The was loads of stuff from rounders to nights out, to just drinks after work. Such a grat balance.
London = expensive.
You can alway have fun in London
We had a lot of things organised for us.
