Rotational Trainee Review

As a Rotational Trainee, I rotated across three NBCUniversal subsidiary companies (UTAS UK, Working Title Films and Heyday Films) every four months for my 12-month Internship.
I worked across development and production teams, as well as up-taking general front-of-house office running duties. As well, I had the opportunity to work as an on-set Production Runner across multiple productions.

Yes. Each Production Company supplied with a lot of my own responsibilities to complete on a day-to-day basis.

My practical skills across development and production have developed massively, as I gained real hands-on industry exposure to both in-house and on-set development and production teams. My ability to anticipate team needs as well as specific departmental expectations across major UK production companies, and quickly adapt to these has grown a lot. My existing skills and knowledge of this sector of the film and television industry developed through my studies at The London Screen Academy, have been applied directly to the professional world - which has strengthened them hugely.

I received a lot of support and guidance across all of the teams that I have worked with throughout my Internship. My various managers, as well as members of the wider team at NBCUniversal and each production company, have always supported my growth and learning and dedicated time to ensuring this.

The NBCUniversal company culture was extremely fun, engaging, supportive and inclusive. The general atmosphere has always felt very welcoming and comfortable at all times.

I enjoyed my Internship tremendously. It completely exceeded my expectations in all aspects - from career and social opportunities, to professional relationship-building/networking to overall happiness. I wish I could experience it all over again!

Yes
