    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Towards the beginning it was mainly training so I wasn't that busy, but as time went on and as I was given more work to do, I became busier. I wouldn't say, however, that I was over-worked.

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

    • The training will be incredibly useful for a future career in the investment banking industry, but maybe not so much for my degree program.
