Recommendations and Advice
Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I carried out research and took part in inspections for my team's projects on a daily basis. My team took the time to explain to me about how different types of valuations worked and showed me how they calculate the valuations and produce reports. There were overviews of the different departments in the business and lots of opportunity to network with graduates, other interns and directors.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was great to gain insight into all the different areas of the business and has left be with a desire to explore more about the industry in general, as I have learnt about so many roles that I was not aware of before.

What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Savills
Talk to the graduate recruitment team and ask for advice in order to perform the best in your application and to make the most of the experience once you are there, they offered me lots of advice for the assessment centre, which helped to get on to the scheme.
