    5/5

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

  • Subsidised/Company Gym

    Company Parties/Events

    3/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • As a technologist, there are bigger opportunities at huge technology companies. If you're interested in finance and technology - this (and fintech) is the place to be.

    4/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµs/colleagues?

    4/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • The area is London. Cheap does not exist.

    2/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • In Canary Wharf, not very good. But Soho is not far out and takes about 15 minutes to get to.

    3/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • As an intern, yes. There are events scattered throughout the internship.
