    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • I had 3 main projects - a corporate social responsibility project where we fundraised for charity in a team with other interns, a business project in a team where we came up with recommendations for improvement in a certain business area, and a placement project that was specific to me and the team i sat on.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • The bank really allows you to drive your own programme, i would tell my line manager things i wanted to work on that week and we would devise ways of improving those skills and he would link me in with other people that could help.
