The Role
Really great experience felt I learnt a lot and felt like I was really contributing to the work.
I received a lot of positive feedback and felt I became a part of the team very quickly.
Always available to answer a question when I had one.
It fluctuated - some days there was little to do and sometimes there was a fair bit of work. But that, I believe, is the nature of the job.
I was given a lot of responsibility as time progressed, which was very encouraging.
Most definitely developed useful soft skills
The Company
Pretty good, not too dull but still able to get work done.
Overall pretty good, could have been a bit more structure in the tasks that I was assigned.
Quite a lot of training and development sessions.
You get fast tracked for the graduate position.
The Culture
Yes we bonded very well together.
I was based out of town, so most of my expenses were covered.
Happening..
Definitely yes.
