Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was treated as if I was a permanent employee and trusted from the first week with important projects. I really wasn't expecting to have as much responsibility as I did. It has developed my skills immensely and it has made the year away from University so worth it.

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
Very happy, friendly, relaxed but still professional. Lots of activities to do after work in the office but I have to say that the office screenings of our latest film releases in our cinema definitely enhanced employee-morale!

Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
I couldn't have wished for a better year in industry. My skills have developed more than I ever thought they would. I have experienced things I never expected to, such as attending my first film premiere and I feel so much more confident about my future career. I am also looking forward to using all the skills I have developed this year in my final year at university.
