I very much enjoyed the day It was a great chance to learn more about the company the people who work there and the career prospects
Certainly the best placement you can get if you are interested in macroeconomics and are considering a career as an economist or studying econometrics at a masters or PHD level You get an indepth view of the running of a central bank and are surrounded b
Although my role was not related to my degree and was not exactly where I was hoping to be placed I made the most of my time at the BoE and had a great time Everyone was very welcoming and friendly the work was not simply fetching coffee but was challe
Great atmosphere felt proud to be working for the UKs central bank Excellent people
Very enjoyable was given responsibility to work towards the completion of a piece of work that is valuable to the bank
Very much so I found it very interesting to hear what the bank had to offer me and how the bank works
Overall the bank is a very good place to work internship provided training opportunities and learning opportunites
The work was very interesting the people were very nice and the culture was great Very enjoyable experience
The Bank seems to be one of the best places to work if you like economics which I do
Assigned a project to complete over the summer on estimating the UKs FDI position Given help and support on Excel and STATA to run regressions Subsidised canteen and flexible hours along with direct link to the MPC were the real plus points
I mostly enjoyed the 2 months working felt like a social environment
Interesting topic given as my project lots of opportunities to go to seminars flexible working hours and a friendly atmosphere within the Bank made my time here very enjoyable
Great experience which allowed me to not only learn the specifics of my role but also easily meet members of staff from all over the organisation to gain a better working knowledge
Nice colleagues lots of support and learnt indepth banking knowledge and policymaking process
All summer interns work on a project mine was interesting and I had a lot of choice in the direction it would take In many cases interns work will be used to guide future work by economists in the bank so it is satisfying to know your work is important
Overall the internship gave a really good insight into the responsibilities of the Bank I was allowed to have hands on experience as an employee from day one as I attended meetings seminars and produce work that the team used directly
Interesting
I really enjoyed working for the Bank the team I was in was very friendly and supportive and also the projects I was given to complete by the end of the internship were interesting and challenging
