The Role
My internship was very enjoyable and I had the chance to learn a lot.
I had the chance to work with very nice and welcoming people who were always ready to answer my questions.
I worked closely with one of my team members who was well-prepared to answer questions, related to my project. I used company-specific discussion forums to ask questions.
I was busy enough not to be bored but usually my days were quite balanced: I attended meetings and had the chance to code as well.
I was responsible for the development of a proof of concept.
1. I've learned more about databases and ORMs which I believe will be quite useful in the future as well. 2.I've developed my communication skills and improved my understanding of agile practices.
The Company
I had a tech mentor who was always happy to answer any questions and many training resources were made available.
Sports and Social Club
Company Parties/Events
Working from home
The Culture
Quite a few enjoyable intern-only events.
Glasgow is a really friendly city; there is always something to do. Cost: reasonable.
Glasgow is great for nightlife.
