Overview
I was responsible for working on six projects, with different line managers overviewing the banks operations, looking for more efficient methods of problem-solving. The projects ranged from internal processes to transactions.
Skills
I now have a much stronger attention to detail and excellent analytical skills.
Responsibilities
I was given a healthy amount of autonomy over my day to day work. I was proactive in arranging meetings with the project managers and meeting deadlines, while networking with other interns as a result of the programmes being remote.
Support & Guidance
A significant amount.
Culture
Positive and inclusive working culture.
Your Impressions
