Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
The role is vast in terms of the tasks you undertake, and the managers get you stuck in straight away. I have never been sat with nothing to do - there always something going on, whether that be on site all day or in the office tackling admin tasks.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was actually surprised about how much responsibility I was given to draft documents that would be sent out to clients, consultants and contractors. Alongside this, I was entrusted to take meeting minutes, draft e-mails and encouraged to contribute in meetings with stakeholders.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I have learnt a plethora of new skills such as improving my proficiency in MS Office applications, improving my communication and networking skills as well as boosting my professional development. It is such a good way of applying knowledge from university into the workplace, which I found really solidified my theoretical learning.

Support and Guidance
How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
There was always someone you ask for help, advice, or something to do. Never did I feel lost on what to do, or bored with no work. Everyone is happy to help you, not just your line manager which I thought really elevated the experience.

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Cushman & Wakefield to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Cushman & Wakefield
Be yourself, be personable, and don't be afraid to show who you are and why Cushman & Wakefield should choose you. They aren't looking for experts for the internship, they are looking for people who will fit well into the company culture and who have a great interest in the built environment & real estate.
