Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

Dependent on your project - which changes every ~ 3 months. Variety of tasks including making spreadsheets and slides, data migration, administration tasks on a project, training, above and beyond tasks within the office. You will have a variety of calls everyday.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I really enjoy the program - you have capacity most days to further your learning, training is covered by the firm - enabling you to train and develop your career in the path you most enjoy. Everyone is friendly and ready to help.
