    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • Whilst my office is a brilliant environment to work in, we all have real projects with demanding deadlines so often you can walk in an we all have our heads down and are cracking on! Similarly, collegues walk in and ask us what the joke was...

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

    • My role has been filled by one year placement 西瓜视频s for a number of years so the processes are pretty seamless the only thing that you may rely on on occasions is the notes left by your predecessor.

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

    • The placement as whole has been a huge development opportunity and offering this role to undergraduates and placement 西瓜视频s can be a risky investment for the company - however the rewards for a placement 西瓜视频 are irreplacable and extremely worthwhile.

    Subsidised/Company Gym

    Company Parties/Events

    The Culture

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

    • The other undergraduates at the Power Station have been an irreplacable support system and network - this has definately contributed to amazing time I have had on placement.

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

    • The cost of living in the midlands on placement has not been a shock to the system having spent two years as a 西瓜视频 in Yorkshire.
