Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

Most of my time was spent networking and learning and understanding the role. I undertook some tasks such as deriving accounting assumptions, calculating transfer values, updating reports and newsletters, manipulating pensions data in excel.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

I was left alone to do tasks and then i could ask questions if I had any. I was not monitored the whole time so it was my responsibility to complete them on time and to my best standard.

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
