    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • It was really a very interesting experience for me, and something totally different from my all previous placements.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • I think the atmosphere in my team was very open - and I think everyone was willing to hear my opinion. I won't say though that they were like family - there was no team integration after work.

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • I was a bit a holiday time in the company, so the problem was that I had to seek for guidance by different members of my team based on availability of them.

    4/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • I had to manage this by myself, there was no pressure at all, so in the beginning I felt a little bored, but later on I started to pick more and more tasks.

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • There was not much personal responsibility, because most of the decisions were made by the whole team.

    3/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I cannot say, but I think organisation skills I gained are going to be very useful for planning even non-work related tasks.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • Working in open space is really enjoyable - there is always a chance to have a talk with everyone.

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • I think it was really really good... Can't see a serious flaw in it.

    5/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • Members of my team always were there to give me very good explainations, there were also some department-wide lectures and discussions, as well as training for all the interns.

    4/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • Flexi Time

    Sports and Social Club

    Company Parties/Events

    Staff Sales/Staff Shop
    3/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • The salary for next position is not very impressive... although working with them was really good.

    4/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement 西瓜视频s/colleagues?

    • There were only two events in two months...

    4/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • Everything is expensive in London...

    1/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • Riots?

    1/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • I think there were, but I wasn't that interested in them because of other non-work related tasks I had to finish.
