    • Future trainee Q&A gave me an idea of what I may potentially face should I attain a TC. Would have been good to have some recent trainees in the Q&A, particularly to quiz about the compulsory banking seat in London.

    • Great, some of them a bit short (e.g. the trainee interaction limited to just the negotiation event) but the length of the day was just right.

    5/5
  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
