    About You

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

    • That was one of the best weeks in my life!

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

    • We all equally valued and everyone had a chance to ask any questions.

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

    • I received the incredible amount of new knowledge during this programme. I felt that I can ask any questions that I have about the bank and people from different sector and product teams could answer them.

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

    • I feel that my communicational skills developed a lot. Especially I kind of got the understanding of how people in the bank communicate with each other and I understood how it is to speak politely, friendly but at the same at the professional level. Taking into account the fact, that I study Accounting and Finance, this week was directly related to my degree. And I feel that had a chance to apply some of my knowledge from the finance module to the project that we had to do!

    5/5

  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?
