  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

    • Loads of networking opportunities, not only in your specified divisions but also people from other areas of the bank. This was extremely helpful as what I want to get into now was not originally in my two preferences, but I got to know more about it through these networking opportunities

    5/5
