    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Colleagues listened to my opinions (eg other students from other universities in the group work activities). Likewise the members of staff at JP Morgan, treated you like a professional adult.

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

    • The assessment centre activity which we did in groups, was an invaluable experience as it allowed us to 'get a feel' of what would be expected in an actual assessment centre. The advice/tips - e.g CV format - very useful for future application to the company.
