The Role
I am very pleased with my placement.
I had a very good cooperation with my colleagues. From the first moment, I felt an equal member of Houlder's family.
My director was always supported me and he encouraged at every step of my career in Houlder.
I believe that the jobs are very well organised and my timetable was quite well balanced.
I think that I had a good balance on responsibilities.
I am very happy with my internship placement, as I am sure that my studies will benefit a lot from my placement. I was involved in many different projects and I gain much experience.
The Company
There was a good and family atmosphere in the office, which is something very helpful for a fresh graduates in order to have a successful placement.
It was very well organised and everyone in the office was happy to answer and help me.
I think that for a 3-months period Houlder supports me a lot and I am pleased for that.
Financial Bonus
Company Parties/Events
I will be pleased, if I have the chance to continue working for Houlder Ltd.
The Culture
Working in Tyneside is a very good place, in order to save some money.
