The Role
I enjoyed the experience and got a good insight into what working at RBS would be like.
I was made to feel like a member of the team from the beginning and they gave me the opportunity to stretch myself and get involved.
All senior management were very friendly and happy to help.
I always had something to do and work set.
After initially being given guidance I was given the opportunity to create documents that were used in my audit along with the rest of my team.
I feel the skills I have learnt have been very relevant to my course and I have learnt valuable networking skills for the future, as well as making many contacts.
The Company
Very friendly and relaxed whilst still professional.
My internship was very well organised from the beginning.
What you would expect for a 10 week internship.
Company Parties/Events
The Culture
Social events were organised throughout.
High, as to be expected in London.
There was a team sports day that was good fun.
