About You
Really enjoyed it! Great insight in to what the bank does
It was clear lots of time, effort and expense was put in to the participants on the week, busy packed schedule!
Supported well by a HR team and mentors
Should help in any applications for summer internships/grad jobs
The Company
Really well! Very busy but well planned and kept to schedule
Really got on well with everyone else on the spring week
provided good insight and opportunities including desk rotations
Quite well, mainly from the desk rotations, got to actually work shadow
Large focus on culture throughout, focus on 'integrity'
Really valuable, for me this was the main bonus of the week as I was really unsure on doing banking before then
Everything Else
Paid for hotel, travel, and majority of food was provided
Had many different networking opportunities with different groups within the bank
Could be quite intense with certain individuals but on the whole became a fun and enjoyable experience, really helped me become comfortable with it
not a large focus on this, only from asking did I find out
