Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?

Bit of a gamble because you don’t get any input into the team you’re put into, if you are put into a function you don’t enjoy there isn’t an opportunity to move around.
Expectation that you’d be put into a team dependent upon your assessment/degree but that is not taken into account.
Interns placed in each team is completely randomised
