    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • Great Experience, the STEM conference was designed in a really imaginative way- we had a world simulation of an Oil and Gas Company, which really helped further my insight into how exploration and production works.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?

    • All the grads and staff were really friendly and keen to offer insights and advice

    5/5
  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?

    • Could have had a bit more explanation with regards to the simulation for the first year, as we had no knowledge of what was 'acceptable' for a bid, however we quickly picked up tactics and they did review thoroughly after each session. Grads always on hand to help out

    4/5
  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • Helpful for giving insight into oil and gas operations. Skills enhanced include group work and presentational skills.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • Could have split simulations over the three days rather than 2, allowing more time to prepare presentations.

    • Great experience, definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and the event

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

    • Showed us how to use simulation briefly but generally left to do it ourselves. However, this made the whole experience more fun as we learnt as we went along and made mistakes!

    4/5
  • 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?

    • Very useful for the areas of exploration and production, however more information could have been given on commercial aspects e.g trading. However, wide range of grads who provided more information

    4/5
  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?

    • Demonstrated that they are very employee aware

    4/5

    • Definitely, it helped increase my understanding of how the company operates and the networking opportunities have meant that any questions I couldn't get answered on the day, I can email the relevant groups for help
