I thought it was a great insight into the graduate program which is quite useful. It had interesting sessions and opportunities to engage with the speakers
Really interesting to hear from speakers from the chosen department as well as generally from the group. Encouraging and helpful advice from the recruitment team in applying to graduate roles and internships within the group. It was great speaking with o...
I enjoyed the insight immensely; there was a huge effort to include different parts of the bank, as well as make the experience as focused on your particular division (mine was Structured Finance) as possible.
I found the insight week fantastic. I enjoyed the range of employees that I was able to engage with- NatWest graduates, to employees who hold senior positions. I'm glad that every virtual day finished with a questions and answer session as it allowed me t...
Excellent sector specific speaker sessions but not enough technical insights
I really enjoyed the insight week and far more than I expected considering it was online. The whole week provided a very good insight into the NatWest group and my chosen stream. The week was very engaging and had a very varied program which helped add to...
I really enjoyed this insight as it allowed me to understand better the purpose of NatWest Group and the role of a Software Engineer in the company. Everyone was extremely helpful, from the HR team, to the external partner that gave a session on Ethical a...
Despite it being virtual, I think that it was structured very well. I found it very engaging and informative. The last session on ethical and social responsibility was the most engaging, as we were put into breakout rooms where we were able to network wit...
Good virtual learning and understanding of the bank
Was enjoyable and informative and was nice how personal experiences were shared by the bank employees to make the insight week more relatable

8 - The fact that it was virtual detracted from the experience, but given the pandemic it was good. In an area that I knew very little about, the introduction and activities were suitable and really helped me develop my understanding. Meeting others and n...
NatWest arranged a wide range of interesting talks about not only the business but the sector as a whole and it’s future. This was thought provoking and informative when considering future career paths in the finance sector. Talking to the current gra...
I enjoyed the experience because even though we had to carry out the internship online, the team at RBS/NatWest tried exceptionally hard to make us feel included and teach us about the company. I learned not only about my section of the firm but also abou...
This virtual experience was simply out exceptional. For their first attempt at an online internship during the current pandemic it is without a doubt a resounding success. All members of the NatWest group were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. Al...
Due to the COVID-19 crisis I think the bank went above and beyond to ensure that we were able to gain an insight into our respective divisions and that we could develop over the month that we were interning online. We were given various opportunities and ...
It was a well rounded experience with lots of opportunities to learn and meet with other people. There were plenty of opportunities to meet the other interns via fun sessions.
I found the whole experience really educational and rewarding. To organise a virtual experience in such a short space of time that had a great balance of being both informative and interactive is something that I think the whole NatWest group early career...
