Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I deal with whatever needs checking in the morning with my team on a rota schedule, Cheques, Reports etc. Then, I begin to deal with the customers and whatever is needed, whether that is constructing an ALIE, On-boarding new customers etc.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
yes, Handelsbanken is an extremely decentralised bank and this leads to every worker having a lot of responsibility and automony.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
