The Role
The work that I was able to get involved with was very exciting because I encountered new challenges on a daily basis and the properties that I was dealing with were of the highest quality.
Everyone at Savills were extremely welcoming, which helped me to settle in straight away.
If I needed any guidance for work I was doing my supervisor would be at hand to help. However, they encouraged me to attempt the work before I asked work and to use my initiative which really helped me to learn and develop very quickly.
There was normally quite a high workload, which meant that the days were quite busy. This helped me to gain as much experience as possible.
I was given graduate like responsbilities, which was far greater than I had originally anticipated.
I was given a high level of exposure to the property industry which helped me to develop a wide range of practical skills. I can now apply those practical skills to my course and will hopefully achieve a better class of degree. This will help me to find a graduate job aswell. I have made a number of key contacts which will help me in the future as a good network is key in the industry.
The Company
There was always a buzz in the office and was an excellent atmosphere to work in.
I was given graduate responsiblies and I had meetings with my supervisor and councillor after every rotation which helped me to keep on track with everything aswell as my APC.
I was able to attend all training courses that were available to employees as well as given a CPD passport.
I hope to be apart of their graduate scheme but I need to go through the application process. I w
The Culture
There was always various events going on, and normally once a week the graduates would go out together.
As it was Central London the cost of socialising was quite dear.
There is an amazing nightlife in London.
Yes there were plenty of activities such as doing the 3 peaks challenge, playing football or playing in the surveyors sevens.
