    About You

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • The day was very well planned, but still allowed time for questions.

    3/5
  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    • There was a positive helpful atmosphere.

    3/5
  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • n/a - It was only a 1 day event, they did give some interview tips though.

    3/5
  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?

    • Fairly well - It would have been nice to have actually been sent to the department related to my degree, rather than a general overview - but this is asking a lot for a 1 day taster.

    3/5
  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?

    • Through meeting graduates as well as managers I think this gave me a good insight into company culture. Company values were also discussed.

    3/5
  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?

    • It was really useful to find out what was going on behind the scenes of the recruitment and why they were not recruiting in my area at the moment. I would have applied if there had been a vacancy.

    3/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

    • I was meant to be reimbursed for expenses, however, a month after the event I have still not recieved a reimbursement yet.

  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?

    • Yes - Meeting graduates was really helpful.

    5/5
  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?

    • It was good to meet graduates over lunch.

    3/5
  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?

    • All case study style presentations on employees roles and projects also included some social aspect involved with the company.

    4/5
