About You
Excellent sector specific speaker sessions but not enough technical insights
Friendly staff but very few opportunities for personal interaction with staff
My questions were answered and next steps were well explained
A lot of corporate jargon but not much tangible insights into what a commercial banker actually does on a day-to-day basis
The Company
Very well organised and easy to follow
Always very friendly, even from a distance
Lovely that this virtual insight was run in the current global situation but the content was very limited
Good general insight but quite vague on specifics of role
Company purpose and values well explained
I still want to go into finance but am not sure commercial banking is the route for me
Everything Else
This was as expected
Beyond asking the odd question in a group, no networking opportunities
Limited
Employee networks and volunteering
Ok for the length of the programme but not great overall
