Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
2 days a week will be dedicated to your placement. This will vary dependent on the team you're on. For me it was collecting information from around the bank through interviews or reports and externally to come up with presentations. The other days you work on a CSR project, Business project and other development sessions.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
This varies based on your placement team. But I was given a lot of responsibility and asked to deliver work which is actually helpful to the bank so I am happy I was able to deliver an impact.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
