“From day 1 I have been actively contributing to live projects and doing meaningful work – I think placement students often have concerns that they might be left with arbitrary or administrative tasks as an intern, but that certainly hasn’t been the case for me. I’m also getting an incredible insight into the City, which will give me a real advantage when I come to apply for jobs as a graduate. I already know the reputation, culture and benefits of the firms I’ll be approaching next year, along with what type of employee they look for and what is actually involved in the day to day for a range of different types of roles. It’s an incredible head start to have over many of my academic peers. I couldn’t recommend BRUIN enough as somewhere to do your Industrial Placement year. ”
