Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
The internship consisted of being assigned to a team in the bank, as well as intern introductions and activities so that we can learn more about different aspects of the bank. Line managers and graduate buddies meet with us every week and are supportive throughout the internship.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
It was very flexible, interns are given opportunities to show our abilities, but nothing is compulsory. You can contribute as much or as little as you feel comfortable to, the environment is very welcoming and all opinions are accepted and taken into account.
