Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a lot of responsibility. I was not constantly monitored and was rather left to my own devices to complete my tasks, with support around whenever I needed it. I was also entrusted to complete creating an engagement brief on my own and was given constructive feedback afterwards to help develop my skills further.

Company Culture
What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
LBG’s culture is unmatched, they are very diverse whilst still maintaining inclusivity. I felt as though I was genuinely supported in both developing my current skills as well as learning new ones. I was further allowed the option to learn using well-known course providers (free of charge). Furthermore, you are left to be responsible to complete your own work at your pace (which can really alleviate stress)!

Overall Experience
To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
I absolutely loved my internship and would recommend anyone who has the opportunity available to them to join! It has been an amazing experience and has taught me a lot about myself, the ‘corporate’ world and what to expect when I graduate! I’m keen to return back to LBG when I do.
