About You
Very much so and the trip to Paris made it even more enjoyable.
I felt that everything that I was involved was part of a bigger transaction. I was not given menial tasks but was given tasks which impacted on a transaction that the firm was working on.
Prior to all tasks I was given a very thorough description of what I was to do and what was expected of me.
In terms of my degree I have already graduated. Beyond my studies the skills will help me greatly.
The Company
I knew exactly what I was doing everyday and the social events were very enjoyable.
Everyone in the office was extremeley friendly and welcoming when I joined in each of my 2 departments. I was able to ask everyone ranging from trainee to partner for help and they all had time for me.
Everything Else
I was paid a weekly wage.
