  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • Responsibility varied, I was given some but considering the fact that the project had been running for a long time, it wasn't so easy to assign my some of the big tasks.

    3/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I think it will be very helpful. I learnt more about the financial world, banking industry. I am better able to appreciate movements in market now. Learnt project/ program management skills, communication skills. How to interact with senior management, network. It's been a brilliant experience.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
