    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • As an intern, I was given simple automation tasks in Jupyter or using excel VBA. I spent a lot of time shadowing different full time employees to understand more about their daily work and look for the role that I am most interested in. I felt warmly welcomed and the bank is very inclusive. The bank encourages cooperation rather than competition, so is really good for learning and self-development.

    Responsibilities

  • I was well trusted. But due to limitation of access, interns are not really allowed to have hand-on experience of actual work. But through talking to the full times I still got a lot of insights.
