    The Role

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

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

    • My colleagues were all very friendly and helpful to me. They were interested in my project and were keen to give me feedback in order to help me for my future career.

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

    • My supervisor was exceptionally helpful to me. Although he was away for some part of my internship, he ensured there was always someone there for me to speak to in case I needed assistance or advice.

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

    • I was busy on a daily basis, but I like that! I was able to fit in lunches with other interns and set up meetings to learn more about the company (outside of my project and team).

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

    • I was given a lot of responsibility and I have been asked to come back to present a workshop on my project to 200 people!

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

    • From my experience, I have gained skills that I will use for the rest of my life. The main skill I developed was presenting to a variety of people from different backgrounds. The analytical skills I developed will also help me in the future.

    5/5

    4/5

    • Very well thought through.

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

    • Someone was brought in from outside the company to specifically help us with presentation skills, which I found very useful. More sessions like this would have been great!

    • Flexi Time

    Subsidised Canteen

    Sports and Social Club

    Subsidised/Company Gym

    4/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • Yet to find out if I got a job, fingers crossed!

    5/5

    The Culture

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

    • Yes, but people lived all over London so it was hard to meet up unless it was straight after work. Really nice people that I would want to socialise with though.

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

    • Around London, so not that cheap. However I lived at home, so living costs for me were basically free!

    4/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • I didn't go out much during my internship, but a train ride to Central London would have taken me to some great clubs (albeit a tad expensive)!

    2/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Yes, but not enough sports teams for women as I would have liked!!
