Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Time is split between general NatWest days (3) and time spent within your department (2). On general days, you work with other interns on two separate projects and attend sessions giving more information on the bank and its stakeholders. Placement days vary but depend on the area you are in.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Not too much responsibility in my case, due to lack of training and knowledge of the systems used, but I was supported and able to see what happened day to day in the department.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
