    5/5

    5/5

    5/5

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

    3/5

    The Culture

  • Very good - the perfect comprimise between university and the working world.

    5/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • My rent was £250 per month, and nights out were never an issue with the salary you receive.

    5/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • Always something going on, with access to other places (London, Milton Keynes, Harpenden, etc.)
