    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • Hours are hard, but other than that - great

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • You get some of 'intern treatment', but it's better not to be expected to know everything on day one than the other way around. You're expected to pick up stuff really fast.

    4/5

    • Associate interns are petted by seniors, really easy access to them

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Really busy, but it's the nature of the business

    1/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • You get really basic stuff as your first task, the better you deal with it the more complicated the next one will be.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • Gives really a good feel of what banking is about.

    5/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • 4/5
