Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?

I really enjoyed my internship and the different opportunities I was able to get involved with. My team was great and there were lots of networking opportunities to get involved with. My only issue, was the lack of intern trainings provided which were appropriate for us. We didn't have too many planned 'intern' trainings, however there were plenty to get involved in on the internal learning platform to make up for it.
