Testimonial from a previous intern, Sasha
“I have quickly come to love working for IWA in just a few short months, I really enjoy working for them with their exciting and fast-paced work ethic. They have immediately allowed me to take on large amounts of responsibility and I felt like a trusted member of the team straight away. Everyone in the office is friendly and very enjoyable to work with – they make you feel like a part of the family! They are also very intelligent and knowledgeable – the amount of experience this company has as a whole is astounding. IWA care about each individual project and each one gets the same special treatment and dedication. I am constantly challenged and I enjoy the opportunity to exercise my creative skills. Most mornings I wake up and can’t wait to get to work! I have learnt a lot since working for them and hope to learn even more in the future whilst having a fantastic time along the way.”
