Overall, how would you describe your experience at Savills?
Highly insightful and beneficial, enabling me to develop a range of technical and soft skills.

I have completed agency and valuation rotations. Valuation rotations provide a good feeling of responsibility, allowing me to complete my own reports from start to finish. For agency, I helped with preparing marketing material, investigating the site, and providing bid summaries to help select an appropriate purchaser.
