    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • The first week was classroom-based training with an external specialist on banking and finance. Then for the next 9 weeks, I worked on the desk in doing tasks as assigned to me by the team. Talking to different members of the department, as well as having 'coffee chats' with people across the bank was a key part of the internship, and getting to understand the bank's structure and operation.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • Yes, I definitely have enhanced understanding of more technical areas within IB and specifically support functions. I enhanced my competency in excel, as well as more department-specific software. It was also great experience to work and communicate in a corporate environment, and learn what is the expected standard is.
