5/5
It helps me understand the London Market a lot more, which is essential in performing certain tasks within my role. It also provides context to certain events, i.e. the Town Halls.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

I have joined the Social Team within LRCS, which will help expand my network and speak to people in my team whom I am not as close to. There are also a lot of apprenticeship socials as well as professional networking events where you can meet new people.
