The Role
My internship with adidas was not only a valuable experience, but also a lot of fun. Getting hands-on experience in my field will no doubt prove useful in the future.
they were all very helpful and appreciative. I never felt looked down upon.
I was given a lot of support, resources, and feedback from day 1. Couldnt have asked for more.
Pretty busy for an intern! I always had something to do or work on.
I was given responsibilities within reason. you cant expect anything huge as an intern, but the work I got became more and more serious over time.
What I learned here will probably get me my first full-time job...
The Company
This being a sportswear company, it was pretty laid back an informal. Colleagues were always kind and nice.
They had a good system in place for getting interns involved and trained up.
I was given a lot of training/learning opportunities throughout my internship.

Apparently they give ex-interns priority when recuriting, so I'm hoping to come back after graduation.
The Culture
people often met up after work for socials.
costs were very high unfortunately :/
everyone knows London is awesome for nightlife :)
the company was involved in several charitable activities that one could join.
