About You
Really enjoyed the experience. Very informative day, got to speak to people working inside the industry and gain a real insight into the company culture. Very interesting overall.
I did feel a bit like a stranger but perhaps only because I was there for a couple of hours! I felt like the professionals didn't really approach me even though I was trying my best to interact with some of them. Unfortunately a bit of a cold welcome. However, the venue was great and the food was good.
Guidance was very good. I learnt a lot about office politics. However given that I was there only for a day, I didn't really feel supported. However, I believe that this would change if I was there for longer.
Very enriching experience! I got to see whether banking was indeed for me and I feel I know more about what I want from my career
The Company
Very well structured!
It was calm, perhaps could have been more fun
Irrelevant question as I was only there for a day.
Really opened my eyes!
Very helpful having graduates come in.
Everything Else
Irrelevant.
Spoke to graduates. Had a lady in management speak to us.
Not much networking opportunities unfortunately.
It wasn't really clear.
Very interesting experience- a must for anybody considering banking!
