Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Lloyds Banking Group to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Lloyds Banking Group
I would suggest researching the culture and values in LBG, including diversity and sustainability. It is important to understand why these are important, and how you can relate to these. Also, connect with previous interns on LinkedIn and have a conversation about what they did, so you can talk about it during the interview. Finally, take some intro to excel courses before you start.
