    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • I enjoyed my internship to the fullest extent possible given the highly interesting work and excellent members of the team.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • I felt highly valued by my colleagues especially during the last few weeks of the internship when I was given tasks that were even more challenging and carried higher levels of responsibility with them.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • The very flat team culture allowed me to reach out to everybody on the team to help me figure out questions when I was stuck. Furthermore, my personally assigned mentor did a great job helping me figure out the office dynamics and technical requirements.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Except for two weeks in the middle of the internship when most team members were on holiday, the work-load was intense but manageable, allowing for a steep learning-curve.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • I felt that the degree of responsibility given to me grew on a weekly basis such that towards the end of the internship I was given tasks similar to those assigned to a full-time first year analyst.

    4/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • The technical skills acquired will help me through the rest of my university life.

    4/5

    The Company

  • The overall internship set-up was highly professional and well-organized throughout the whole 10-week program.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • All interns received a week-long training to start the internship. In addition, team-members often took time to educate us on topics we were keen to learn more about

    5/5

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

    5/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • London is expensive but the company supports interns coming from places other than London with a relocation bonus. Furthermore, HR organized several events to get to know other interns as well as full-timers working at the firm.

    3/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • Very good yet very expensive.

    4/5

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