The Role
Rich experience overall. Maybe a bit much focused on accounting.
Very friendly people and atmosphere.
People are always happy to help you.
Fairly busy as I work in two different teams.
Not a lot at the begining, which is normal. But as time goes back, you get more responsabilities.
I have not gone back to Uni yet, but I'm sure that skills that I learnt with Excel will be useful for my degree.
The Company
Good atmosphere. People are relax but also know when and how to work efficiently
Well organised. The HR department did a good job!
Good investment overall.
Healthcare/Dental
I would still have to go to a set of interviews and test if i wanted to come back.
The Culture
Yes, a lot of other nice placement students.
Reasonable.
It was good. Went to the Pub a few times.
Yes, there were a lot of activities you could sign in for. Charity events (JP MOrgan race, and other things like that)
