Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
Insight day comprising of introduction to MUFG and Banking, group task with fellow insight day participants, speed-networking session with graduate analysts and panel discussion with senior leaders at MUFG.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
The speed-networking session allowed students to talk to junior members of the organisation to learn about their roles and their route into banking which was extremely insightful. The panel session with senior leaders was also very helpful in shedding light on different roles within the organisation.

Students had an opportunity to improve and gain transferable skills through the group task.
