8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

The scheme was very well organised in general, especially considering the fact that we had a number of talks covering different aspects of real estate practice. However more social events with graduates and fellow interns would have been a plus.

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

I think I was given sufficient training to complete my tasks, and some extra training to help me to built a fuller picture. I think for a 4 week program, this amount of support was more than anyone could have expected.

11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

under the current market condition, competition for a position in Savills would be fierce, but with the experience I have, I think I am in a relatively good position for getting into the Grad program.
