About You
Despite only being a one day event, I found this very useful. The opportunity to talk to people currently on the graduate scheme gave me a much better insight than anything I have read and allowed me to get answers to the questions I wanted to know.
It was mainly just sitting through talks
Found the information that was given really useful and could help me to make future decisions.
It won't really have an impact on my learning at university but will provide me with a really good insight for interviews and assessment centres.
The Company
Good structure, the day ran very smoothly.
Good atmosphere throughout the day with energy in all the speakers.
Had some practice assessment centre exercises which we got feedback on.
Speakers who were in those roles and recent graduates.
Understand the Lloyd's banking group values much more now
Gave me a lot of information which has really helped me out.
Everything Else
Reimbursed for my train fare.
Really good networking opportunity.
Really strong social side.
Some additional parts such as taking part in an advertising campaign.
Really useful day!
