Sometimes the learning doesn't match up to my daily tasks but it is useful to understand the bigger picture and financial services as a whole.

3/5
I have had the chance to be involved in a lot of career fairs/networking events however there isn't many apprentices in my area so travel involving personal expense is sometimes required.
