Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
We went in everyday to and had numerous talks what varies from the different roles at the firm to understanding how we work and appreciating the different working styles of others. We also did work with our buddies who set us researching tasks for the department we were based.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
I would say we did gather quite a general understanding of what everyone did at the firm and how vast it different each team was due to the different specialisations.
