Your Impressions
Really enjoyed, was given the opportunity to work with teams and departments that i wouldnt have thought i was going to working with, also had the chance to build a good and wider network of people.
Yes
Go in with an open mind especially if you are from a more creative industry and you'll learn a lot about areas that you are most likely unfamiliar with which will be beneficial in the long term. Be open to all opportunities regardless of what you want to do in the future and be keen to do task and help
