Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The insight provided an in-depth look into WTW’s core business areas through case studies, skills workshops and networking with graduates. Each day involved team exercises, presentations on career pathways and Q&As with recent joiners who shared their day-to-day responsibilities and development journeys.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was eye-opening to explore WTW’s diverse business areas from Investments and Retirement to Work & Reward. Hearing from graduates and senior leaders gave me a clear picture of the day-to-day responsibilities and progression routes within each stream. It helped me understand how my skills could align with different roles and how WTW supports long-term career development through training, mentorship and early responsibility.
