    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • I got on really well with my team which is crucial, and I was treated like any other team member rather than as an intern.

    5/5

    • My manager was extremely accomodating and gave me so much exposure to everything.

    5/5

    4/5

    5/5

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

    • There seemed to be an awful lot of work involved running the internship project for 20 people. Also for the managers, they had to dedicate a lot of time to help us, which was very generous.

    • Company Parties/Events
    3/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • Yes, I've made some really good friends here, both with other interns and my team

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • I'm not from around London so having to rent a flat for 2 months was tricky and expensive, but worth it.

    1/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • I went home straight from work twice in 8 weeks, which sums it up really.

    5/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Socialising etc. but not a lot of formal activities.
