Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
My day to day roles depends on what project I am. The first project involved handling travel insurance claim. I had to analyze the evidence and decide if claim met the criteria to be escalated to payment or it had to rejected or I had to call the customers to ask for further evidence. I also handled inbound calls and dealt with customers inquires. This project lasted for 2 months, after this I was on the bench for several months which involved assisting the operations team with admin tasks and doing WBLs. The current project I am on, I have to go through rulebooks and segment clauses as mandatory or information. I also have to do metadata mapping on the rulebooks.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
It depends, some days can be boring with tedious tasks and some days can be interesting. On the bench the workload is usually very light and you are given flexibility over to how to make use of your time to upskill (when not doing operation tasks). I enjoyed most days on the bench as I could work on my uni assignments or do whatever online courses (relevant to EY) I wanted to develop a particular skill of my choosing.
