What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
This was evident from day 1, when the managing partner met with the entire internship cohort. He was extremely friendly and approachable, and made sure to answer as many questions as possible. Everybody else at the firm, from the various graduate recruitment team members, to the various partners, associates, and trainees, were all so very friendly and welcoming, and wanted all the candidates to succeed as well.

Overall Experience
To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
Throughout the 5 days, there was absolutely no time when I felt that I wasn't learning more about the firm. Furthermore, it was not insight that you could simply read on the internet, it was very specific and personal information that was given out, which could only have been experienced by having interacted with the firm.
