Overview of Role

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

I worked in the Retail Banking, where I was involved with planning and a project to manage work requests. I was encouraged to have a lot of coffee chats and attended many spotlights. As an intern, we also have a project where we have to find a new innovation for the bank to present to our managers.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

I was given a task that doesn't directly affect the work of my team but does help improve their efficiency. I am getting support on the task but it is my responsibility to manage it.

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?

I have really enjoyed it. Although I found it a bit overwhelming at the beginning, people are often willing to help. I know that I have been lucky to get a really supportive manager and to have a clear and tangible task as I am aware that is not the same for all interns. There has also been quite a few socials.
