    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • Varies immensely depending on the team you are in. Initially, I was not allocated a team therefore had to go out of my way to network and be given/find work to do. I was invited to meetings with wider colleagues, but also scheduled my own catch up meetings to network and gain career advice.

    Business Insight

    Culture
