    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Really enjoyed that they treated me like a real employee rather than an intern and gave me responsibility.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • Working in small teams let you get to know people and they treated me as they would any other colleague.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • Given an induction to get to know the basics and then helped a lot on the job by other team members who were more than willing to help.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Took place in low season for the firm and so at times was left unused, although generally not for long.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • Gave me as much responsibility as they would to a full-time employee.

    4/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • Very good for developing teamwork and a good work ethic

    4/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • Professional but still enjoyable

    3/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • Very well although perhaps left with too few things to do towards the end of the internship

    4/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • Gave us a full induction and monitored us throughout the whole internship giving plenty of feedback along the way

    5/5

  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?
  • Sports and Social Club

    Company Parties/Events

    3/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • All interns in the South East were offered full-time jobs and I accepted mine

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • Caught up on most Fridays and also had a meal with all interns from the South East towards the end of the internship. Sometimes being placed at client offices made it difficult to see the other interns though.

    4/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • Cheaper than London but still as would be expected in terms of prices in the South East

    3/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • Nice pubs

    3/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • Had a huge variety of sports teams and clubs available

    5/5
