Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The internship consists of 4 weeks. The first week is induction and training. The following two and a half weeks is dedicated to client project and a social enterprise project in which we help make deliverables. The last 2-3 days is devoted to administration stuff.
Hybrid work. I went to office 2-3 days per week and travelled to London three times throughout the internship. Great work culture and nice offices.

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
Friendly company culture. Hybrid working is a general norm. Workload is not high as an intern, but may increase for more senior members. I like the general atmosphere as the offices are great and people are willing to teach you when you don't understand something.
