    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Really lovely team and lots of socialising. Given a broad range of interesting tasks to work on.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • The team were very inviting and welcoming, although due to people being on holiday and the hot desk system, it was hard to meet everyone.

    3/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • My allocated 'buddy' was a great help, really easy to talk to and always made sure I had the support I needed.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • I was given lots of tasks to do and often on short time scales. I never found myself without work.

    5/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • I was given lots of responsibility in terms of producing documents that were going out to clients and submitting applications - everything was checked by senior staff prior to going out!

    4/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I feel I have learnt really applicable skills that will be beneficial in all future jobs.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • Generally quiet throughout the day, but social events in lunch times and evenings made up for this.

    4/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • Very well organised. There were lots of people on the internship and the introductory training day allowed us all to get the equipment/ skills needed for the internship. We were often in contact with the recruitment team, who offered interview prep and advice when needed.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • As a relatively short internship, the investment in personal training was limited to allocated jobs. Although at times it felt like there were preparing you for a potential grad job, other times it felt like we were just on work experience.

    3/5

  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?
  • Company Parties/Events

    3/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • I would love to work here long term.

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • There was at least one team or internship event per week.

    4/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • Living and commuting is very expensive as its London. Lots of the socialising (unless arranged separately by interns) was paid for by the company.

    3/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • Very good nightlife with good connections to the rest of London.

    3/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • There are weekly softball competitions in Hyde Park that we were invited to play in.
