Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
This role varied from day to day. Some days I would be out of the office all day at an estate visit, some days I would be in the office for half the day and the other half would be spent visiting clients and other days I would spend all day in the office. When in the office I undertook a wide range of tasks from mapping to finding comparable evidence.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
I had the opportunity to talk to members of all the teams in the office allowing me to get a great overview of the whole Savills business. I also had the opportunity to attend a staff event which was attended by multiple different offices allowing me to learn about the different office and roles available throughout the midlands.
