    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I really enjoyed the whole experience, even if it was delivered in distance. I am impressed by the internship program of Bank of America, which consisted in 3 weeks of training and 3 weeks in the desks. I personally really enjoyed the projects on which I worked and I learnt a lot from them. I met such great people who always found half an hour to talk with us, and that is absolutely impressive.

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • I felt really valued from my colleagues. I worked on 3 projects at BofA and I received positive feedbacks from everyone. Also constructive feedbacks, on which I am happy to work.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Managers are what makes the difference in that great company. I really felt appreciated from them and they helped me a lot, bot with my project and with my personal growth.

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Catch up, workgroups, projects and training. The greatest challenge was to handle with multiple deadline. But the way, my days were full of everything and I enjoyed that.

    3/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I worked on two projects for which what I studied was a bit useless. But I don't think this is a cons, otherwise it was a way to challenge myself and learn something new. For the third project, I believe that my background really helped me in delivering a greater one.
