Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Attending meetings with my team, graduate buddy and senior mentor. We have two projects to work on as well : our intern learning project and then the project we do where we help develop something for the bank.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, I was given my own project to work on with a team that had international developers too so I had to organise my time well to account for time zones for meetings and developing the project.

Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
Due to managers and teams being quite busy at the start of the internship sometimes it was hard to get support quickly but everyone was very friendly and supportive overall and once I better understood my tasks and needed less help it wasnt an issue at all.
