    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • It was nice networking event at Lloyds office in London, I really enjoyed it as it was a good opportunity to meet new people and to talk to current staff at the group.

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?

    • It was only an insight day, so I do not think we had enough time to feel valued for that time.

    3/5
  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?

    • We had an opportunity to ask as much questions as we want, and also we met some of the current graduates, which gave us an idea what the working for Lloyds is like.

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

    • The information that we received was invaluable and "first hand" for me, like what type of people they are looking for, what the different roles in their company are like, what is like to work in the banking industry, etc. As I would really like to work in that industry, that information was invaluable. We did not have many time to develop any new skills though.

    4/5
