The Role
Overall, I enjoyed my internship a lot.
Colleagues were really friendly and helpful!
My line manager took time to listen to my concern and offered good advice.
I was sometimes really busy but sometimes had not so much work. I understand that this is the nature of the job.
I feel that I was given more and more responsibility as time went by.
I learned to prioritise and work under pressure, which is super helpful in my future study.
The Company
People are friendly and there were a lot of chats. I really enjoyed the environment.
Overall it was a superb experience.
I feel that my team really took the time to train us. We were even offered internal modelling trainings within the team.

Subsidised/Company Gym
I can see myself working here at HSBC as a full time employee.
The Culture
People were really friendly and I enjoyed catching up with my fellow interns.
Slightly expensive but still manageable.
It was good, but we didn’t have much time to enjoy it.
There were a lot to get involved, but we didn’t have much time to do so.
