The Role
Very much so.
Extremely valued. The WB Group fosters a collaborative atmosphere and I had the opportunity to be involved in great projects.
The support provided was fantastic - ranging from appraisals to a comprehensive L&D program.
Very busy, which I consider to be a good thing!
I was given a great deal of responsibility to run my own workload and liaise with in-house colleagues as well as external counsel.
The skills and training I have received will benefit me throughout my career.
The Company
The atmosphere was very friendly, positive and engaging.
The placement was exceptionally well organised.
Warner really did take investing in staff seriously. The L&D program involved great training from day one, including on law-specific topics such as contract drafting.

Future prospects with Warner are truly exceptional. I'm actually staying on for another year!
The Culture
The social scene amongst other interns and trainees was great. There was always something going on, and always opporunities for you to meet others from across the business.
The cost of living in the outskirts of London is actually very reasonable.
Nightlife in the Holborn and Soho areas is fantastic.
There was always an opportunity to get involved with an activity outside of work - from running marathons to attending parties.
