Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I got an introduction of the Investment banking and Global Market's division. We had a virtual introduction, where we would listen to workers explaining their day-today roles, what they did on a daily basis and what excited them to work at the Bank of America.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Is it exciting to learn about the business roles and what could be your potential future career. As said by many employees, everyday is not the same. This gave me an insight of how exciting it would be to work in a fast paced environment.
