Overview of Role

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

During my day to day I spend my time working through transitions to transfer money between accounts, making up QMRs to help explain what we are doing with money and the plan for the future.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

I was often given responsibility to work through tasks alone after being given the instructions on what to do. I was very rarely told I had to work with someone and was encouraged to take responsibility

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?

I've improved my numerical and analytical skills throughout my time on the internship. I greatly improved my presenting skills due to have more exposure to presenting infront of people more often.

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?

Everyone was very welcoming and you never felt anyone was not available to talk to about work or any help you needed. It felt like a very flat structure where anyone and everyone was willing to help even if they were much more senior.

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?

I had great fun the entire time of my internship and it was great to always be given projects even though I was just an intern. Having that responsibility made me feel much more welcomed and satisfied with a days work.
