NatWest is very clear in letting us know about the various roles in the bank, and also allowed us to talk with graduates and business leaders, which is a very helpful and personal way to discover about various roles available.

Overall Experience
To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
To be frank, I did not expect myself to enjoy this much about this insight week based on my previous experiences with other firms. However NatWest makes it really special as the event organisers will try their best to make us feel comfortable and interact with one another, the people part of the insight is the best to me.

What tips or advice would you give to others applying to NatWest Group
Be genuine, be yourself. Reflect upon your experience before, and you do not have to be in a finance/econ degree to join them. You will know if here is meant for you if you are chosen, and they are very good at choosing ones that can "vibe" well with the firm. So just go for it, be wild, be true, and be yourself.
