Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Assisted colleagues and learnt about the different risk types. I was involved in a few projects and helped out where possible. I have given a mock pitch, pitching MUFG's services to a group of managers. I also presented to senior management for my findings on a project I worked on over a month.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given some responsibility, but since I was junior, I didn't approve/send out reports but I did do a lot of research into existing policies and procedures. I also learnt some data analysis and how to show trends on graphs for presentations.
