About You
Enjoyed the experience and would definitely be something i would consider in the future.
Not everyone was aware of my position but the people i was working with had no problem embracing me.
Helped every step of the way and people had no problems answering questions when i asked.
Learned a variety of interpersonal skills while also improving my confidence. Definitely skills that have been transferable to my degree.
The Company
Not planned particularly well, there were some days where it wasnt clear where i should have been
Friendly and fun atmosphere, things never taken too seirously
I was taken on a few training modules before i could begin working in the company.
Very closely followed around employees so i practically got used to their daily routine.
There was no specific mention of the companies culture it was more about completing the job at hand.
Allowed me to gain a knowledge about one of the possible career paths i could take.
Everything Else
More of a volunteering role just for me to gain personal experience.
Not a huge amount of opportunities for networking as there wasnt much time to discuss things with people who had power.
not applicable
Regular social events.
Definitely worth the time if your interested a career in this direction.
