Overview of Role

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

I would help the team with admin work, shadow the team to gain experience, collate information for client projects, network with different departments, look over slips, learn more about the insurance world and the products they offer

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

Some but not a lot, there are regulatory limits on what you can do

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

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

I have learnt mainly about being in an office and having a 9-5 job. i have learnt plenty of soft skills in that area but also some technical skills in the types of insurance products Aon offer and how different risks are placed and by the systems they use. i have become more proficient in excel and powerpoint
