    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • A typical morning starts a 9.30 with Welcome and Icebreaker and Introduction to the day, then there will be several panels involving skill-building sessions/ networking sessions/ graduate panels/ business lead & employee panels (varying each day). Attendees will have around a 1h15m lunch break, then come back to have a go at the 2hr Insights Week Challenge which is a group work session where attendees will collaborate together and produce a PowerPoint to be presented on the last day of the Insights Week. Finally, the week is wrapped up with a warm closing session from the team, leaving us with more insights into NatWets's value, culture and approach at championing potentials of people, family and businesses.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • Graduate panels, Business Leader panels and Employee panels allowed us to gain a deeper and more detailed understanding of what daily work is like for each function we applied for. It provided us with an idea of what a typical day is like to be working at that specific function, which cleared our minds for us to set our future career paths to pursue.
