Definitely. In previous jobs I have struggled with imposter syndrome, but the more responsibility I'm given, the less I feel that way. During my internship at Carnival, they found the balance of giving me enough responsibility, whilst also providing me with the training so I wasn't thrown in at the deep end. I was able to help out on set, manage assets and also was able to help out with anything my team needed support with then and there. This allowed me to feel valued as an employee.

Yes absolutely - I was able to further my excel skills along with my organizational skills. Working in an in-house production company means you get to develop your skills in terms of telephone etiquette, how to communicate efficiently via teams/outlook and simply how to work in this type of environment. These are skills I will take with me wherever I go next in my career as they are valuable and transferable skills.

I never felt I wasn't supported - I have a disability and I was never treated me differently yet if I felt I needed support, it was always there. Additionally, if I had any questions, I never felt I couldn't ask. NBCUniversal are big on growth, and I felt my biggest outcome from this internship is how much I've learnt.

Amazing - NBCUniversal is such a warm, inclusive and exciting place to work. There are so many fun events and cool experiences I don't think many other companies offer, especially to interns. Sometimes it takes a while to adjust and to feel completely comfortable in how you should communicate with your colleagues, as when you're new it take a while to figure out how things work, but once you get into the groove of things you relax and just enjoy what is such a great place to work.

I absolutely have loved it!! A high bar has been set for the rest of my career.
