Very enjoyable, friendly working environment and got given help by everyone.
My team treated me not as an intern but as a regular member of staff as did others around the business.
My manager and colleagues were always willing to help out and completely support me when I needed it.They also let me go it alone which was extremely helpful.
A very good balance. As the team knew I was an intern my workload started off quite light and gradually progressed throughout the year.
I was given a lot of responsibility as my placement progressed which was really helpful and enjoyable!
I will definitely be using all the skills I learnt beyond University. I learnt and developed so many.
Sometimes a bit quiet but everyone was hard working but at the same time there were plenty of times when was had. There was a very good balance.
In my team it was very well set up as I had a good manager who thought of all the small details in advance.
They invested plenty of time in me and were helpful if I asked about any more training that I could get.
