Overview
My role involves assisting Relationship Managers, Relationship Directors and Associates in their day to day business activities. Those consist of writing risk statement, talking to clients, liaising with partners across the bank, understanding markets, performing financial analysis and many other supporting activities.
Skills
I particularly developed my communication skills, my intercultural understand (soft skills) and in terms of hard skills I markedly improved in performing financial analysis.
Responsibilities
I was given responsibility over projects of both local and national impact which I independently had to deliver on.
Support & Guidance
I received a lot of guidance throughout my internship, there were always points of contact for me that I could rely upon.
Culture
The company culture was very welcoming, international and integrative. I never felt out of place or not as a part of the common effort as a team to achieve more together. I was very happy with the way this was set up.
Your Impressions
My placement in this internship was most enjoyable and far exceeded my initial expectations. Having been my first internship experience in finance, I did not fully know what to expect and hence was not too sure initially but my expectations were fully met.
Yes
I think that they should strive to identify whether their own values align with the company for HSBC is a place that truly lives its values.
