Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
Lots of guidance and support. HR and early careers worked really hard to plan socials and deliver subject specific talks so we get a deeper understanding as to who MUFG are and what MUFG do.
Everyone is willing to help and does so with a smile. Massively encouraged to reach out to people via coffee chats and they offer good guidance as to their career and things they see opportunity in etc.

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
General atmosphere is amazing. Everyone walks round with a smile and a hello and will stop and talk if you so want. Everyone cannot do enough for you in terms of subject knowledge and general help. People will talk about their lives outside of work which is nice because it offers a different perspective and will grab a coffee with you during the day for any form of catch up you would like.
How would you rate the inclusiveness of the culture?
