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

    • It depended on each floor but on my floor it was quite relaxed and friendly. Everyone was really nice and helpful.

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • Everything was well planned and we were always notified about upcoming events with at least a few days before they took place. There were minor hiccups related to the conference room being new but overall everything was well organised.

    4/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • There was always the opportunity to learn anything via the company's internal "university". Aside from this, we had to take many trainings related to the law governing the company.

    The Culture

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

    • Everyone got along real well. About half of the interns were 西瓜视频s at my university so we knew each other but we also managed to become friends with everyone else as well.

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

    • I would say it was quite decent. Prices in Glasgow are generally really good.

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

    • Glasgow is a very vibrant city. There were plenty of opportunities to have a great night all around the week.

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

    • There was a day where all the interns participated in volunteering outside of the office.
