Internal Audit Summer Intern Review

This role involved working with the EIA department to conduct audits across various divisions. As part of the 3-stage audit process, I supported the risk and control identification and assessment process, the write-up of overview documents, and conducted stakeholder meetings.
In addition, I supported teams in regulatory mapping, issue validations and ICAAP pieces.

A lot. From the beginning, they viewed me not as an intern, but at as analyst. As somebody who enjoys stepping into the challenge, the work was very rewarding and I felt as part of the team.

Absolutely, the biggest skill being written and verbal communication which is incredibly important to do well in this industry. I need to be able to process many written documents and make them concise, to relay them in an effective manner.

My department supports me whole-heartedly. They tailored the internship to me, and supported me whenever I expressed interest in a particular area or type of work. We were always transparent with each other which meant that they could support me and I, them. I received a lot of guidance from my team, who would take time to explain the task and how to execute it correctly.

Very positive atmosphere, the work-life balance is phenomenal which is a reflection of the efforts and consideration that the organisation has taken to support the wellbeing of its employees. Strong japanese ethos and roots permeating all fields of business.

Fully enjoyed the placement, I wish it didn't end!
The team is what makes the internship. Without them, I wouldn't have enjoyed my experience nearly as much as I have.
