A challenging placement that stretehed my own skills as we as developing others. My project was engaging and interesting, however I might have liked to have other, different tasks to complete during my time.
Enjoyable experience, met several excellent economists and had very interesting discussions with them. Lots of seminars that were really interesting too
I really enjoyed my year at the Bank of England, I was given amazing opportunitiese and responsiblities. I felt very valued within my role.

I loved the two months I spent at the Bank. The work was interesting, relevant and enjoyably challenging. The working environment and atmosphere were fantastic and rather unique because there was a semi-academic feeling but in a professional context. I wa...
Loved the people, the place, and the work in itself was challenging, there just wasn't enough to keep me busy for the full eight weeks, though this seemed to be particular to my project.
really liked the people I worked with and the other interns. Felt looked after by the company.
