Katie arrives after successful university internship

January 2011

We have recently welcomed Katie Whitlock to our team following a successful undergraduate internship placement last summer.

21-year old Katie, who is from Hampshire and currently in her final year of a BA degree in Management Studies at the University of Leicester, originally spent eight weeks at our head office on Regent Road last June and has since been offered a permanent position assisting with the firm’s marketing activities. 

Katie comments, "My internship at Newby Castleman last summer was extremely enjoyable and provided me with some valuable marketing experience so I was delighted to be offered the chance to return to the firm. The fact I was made to feel extremely welcome was a key factor in returning and I very much feel part of the team here."

Stephen Castleman, Partner, comments, "We are very pleased to welcome Katie back to the firm after a successful internship placement last summer. In just those eight weeks she showed exactly the right kind of enthusiasm and willingness to learn that we look for in all our employees and she settled in extremely quickly. We therefore had no hesitation in approaching her to return to the firm when the opportunity arose."
