Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Worked market allocation as divided out by team. The general format of working my markets would be risk trades, high values and then unmatched. We also had to clear our mailbox. Once this was all done we would then cover any remaining trades along with any individual tasks assigned by the team.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes. My position was treated like an entry level position, meaning I would have the same responsibilities as other members of the team. This was all weighted towards all our overall experience.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
