    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • Great. I developed skills and got great experience for the future.

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • I feel like I'm definitely part of the team.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Plenty of support where I needed it. My supervisor was very patient when I was struggling with certain aspects. Very nurturing.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Peaks and troughs. At times, I had numerous cases and pieces of work to do in each case. At others, there was little work. Generally good.

    3/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • I was given as much, if not more, responsibility for files than friends and some colleagues at law firms.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I developed my drafting skills, advocacy, interpersonal, organisational and other skills.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • Very Friendly.

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • Generally very good. I think I could have done with a bit more diversity in some areas (e.g. looking at one other area of law, or looking at another area of IP practice).

    4/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • My supervisor did a lot to ensure that I was learning and growing as an intern and as a lawyer.

    5/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • Flexi Time

    Subsidised Canteen

    Staff Sales/Staff Shop
    4/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • A job at Warner Bros. right now is not best for my career. Could apply for a Training Contract, to which I would get an interview, but in-house is not the best place to start a legal career generally. It has given me the experience to seek firms in private practice.

    1/5

    The Culture

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

    • I started my internship late so it was a bit more difficult to socialise.

    4/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • Good, but perhaps slightly more expensive to what I'm used to.

    2/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • It's London!!

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

    • A few, e.g. a team-building day etc.
