Feedback:<\/b><\/p>\n

We recruited\u00a0a Trading Standards Social Media Intern through the graduate business partnership with the University of Exeter. Our intern had a project to deliver which he did\u00a0in a timely and professional manner.\u00a0Devon County Council IT and salary payment system left a lot to be\u00a0desired,\u00a0but Oliver coped well and used his own IT\u00a0skills\u00a0to good effect.<\/p>\n

Our intern also gave several presentations where he dealt with the audiences well\u00a0and answered\u00a0questions in a very mature and matter of fact manner.<\/p>\n

Recruitment of the intern was an\u00a0easy-to-follow\u00a0procedure assisted by a knowledgeable team where nothing was too much trouble. It was a pleasure working with the intern who demonstrated a good work ethic and showed a maturity beyond his years. We really enjoyed having him on board and recommend the internship schemes provided by the University of Exeter to all types of businesses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
