About You
The Company
Training for the first two days and a good insight into CSR on the last day.
Would need a summer internship to find out more about this, but still quite informative.
Evident flat hierarchy and healthy culture, revealed through shadowing.
Very good insight into all areas of banking, and the work shadowing had 8 rotations so was really informative.
Everything Else
Accommodation, travel and most meals provided.
Very good networking during shadowing sessions, but not enough networking sessions with other employees of RBS.
Would need more networking events, but social event was good, even though there was only one.
Great CSR. Found out about this through presentations and shadowing, but alaso through CSR activities during the week.
Good experience to find out which division you are most suited to.
