Good placement - for my sandwich course year. Gave me a good insight into the company and what it would be like to work for them
I found the job to be rewarding and mentally stimulating. My colleagues were great and I really enjoyed the placement.
Got a really good insight into the industry, met lots of interesting people.
An absolutely fantastic opportunity. The team I was placed with were welcoming, professional, extremely friendly and happy to treat as more than 'the intern'. I was given real responsibility and real projects to deliver.
I was able to extend my placement by 4 weeks which was excellent.
Overall a good experience
The people were good but the job was not the most interesting at time
I thoroughly enjoyed the placement and the fact that the company got me doing an actual job as opposed to typical 'work experience' jobs. Would have been 10 stars, has I not been there during the time of the merger with HBOS as sometimes this led to colleagues being very stressed & confused and this feeling would rub off on others.
The job itself was really good. All of my colleagues were friendly and helpful, and the experience itself I felt was invaluable.
I was made to feel very involved with current projects and took on some roles where I could really contribute to the business. There was some work that was more dull and administrative, but I felt this was well balanced with more interesting and more challenging projects I was involved in.
It was a great job, which involved real responsibility.
Really great insight - Managed projects from end to end and worked with stakeholders across the company!Great insight and exposure for me.
I feel the placement definately prepared me for my final year and I learned a lot but I sometimes felt that the work did not stretch me enough and I worked for the company at a very difficult time with a number of changes occuring as a result of the economic climate and the integration with HBOS.
Every one (apart from my manager) where absolutely lovely they really helped me and talked me through every thing they where doing (as I was not allowed to do it myself)
The vareity of work, particulaely at such a unique time in the bank's history has meant I've had great opportunities
PLEASE NOTE: This review was for a placement at Lloyds TSB prior to Lloyds TSB merging with HBOS to become Lloyds Banking Group. (The RateMyPlacement Team) It was a great experience however the responsibilities given could have been better
PLEASE NOTE: This review was for a placement at Lloyds TSB prior to Lloyds TSB merging with HBOS to become Lloyds Banking Group. (The RateMyPlacement Team) I really enjoyed my placement, LTSB were great at noticing my own ambitions and gave me a great deal of responsibility to ensure that I challenged myself to the the full.
