    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I really enjoyed these 9 weeks of internship. It's really well organized so that we can network with many people across the bank and with the other interns. We are given a good overview of the different jobs in the bank and we are invited to go and meet the other teams on the trading floor.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • You can really add a lot of value in your team. They listen to your ideas and suggestions and are happy to discuss any topic.

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • The management takes time to explain us what they expect from us. They give us projects but they help us throughout the internship. They also give you feedback on a regular basis.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • It depends on the day. Sometimes you can have a lot of works and meetings. Sometimes you are not busy so you can go and see the other teams.

    3/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • They trust you very quickly and then they give you responsabilities very quickly: writing trades ideas for clients, attending clients'meetings,...

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

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • I'm working in the City. There are a lot of pubs and restaurants close to the office. It's easy to go out with other interns in that area.

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Not really. If you look for activities outside of work, you have to organize this with other interns.
