Overview
Placement project assigned by manager, charity challenge and presentation around a given topic
Skills
Stakeholder management has been greatly improved. Good natural opportunities to improve networking. Time management has been a key area of growth. Office skills have improved. Financial acumen has developed to include a wide array of products
Responsibilities
Yes, given tasks that actually initiated changed to the departments operations
Support & Guidance
Lots of support from the grad community with a grad manager and mentor. Within placement I was supported by team members and managers.

Very relaxed and not as corporate as expected. Everyone was very accommodating to my lack of experience in the area.

Had a fantastic time gaining insight to the working world, had a great work culture with other interns and felt like I was gaining useful skills ahead of entering the workforce.
Yes
Be yourself, no need to force a more corporate image.
