Contacting me

What I do
I was a finance intern at Severn Trent Water's head office. Each week I revolved to a different department in the finance team to learn about what they do and for me to do my own project for them.
Skills I use and how I developed them
Communication: Developed by effectively using the company's IT
Teamwork: Each week I worked in a different team and I developed my team work by constantly adapting myself to each situation.
Problem Solving: Each team had a different project to be worked on. I developed this by never being afraid to ask questions.
What I like most
The experience of working in a top FTSE 100 company and the exposure that I received to the financial world
What I like least
Sometimes I felt that a week was not long enough to get properly involved in each team.
What surprised me most
The number of different teams and the communication between all of the different teams.
