About You
The weekend went throught so quickly, I couldn't believe it.
I even got a cake for my birthday.
Soft skills training session are always important, workshadowing was eve-opening and boosted my motivation to excel.
The Company
Even before final presentations which were scheduled for 12:45, I think they planned on having it at 1 pm, so we get extra 15 mins of time, we really appreciated, to practice.
I made a lot of new friends.
Can't really compare this to other firms, but we got so many chances to speak to employees at different levels during their work time, its unbelievable.
Work shadowings were fantastic. I got quite a picture of what employment looks like in Barclays.
Culture was everywhere around us.
Everything Else
Already mentioned before.
They even invited some members of one such group to come to talk to us.
Already did.
