    The Role

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

    • Working at Citi was a great experience, definitely enjoyed my time. A distinct effort was made by my team to get me involved and challenged

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Obviously it takes some time to break into the culture, but after a bit of time and team events I felt truly involved.

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

    • Great people to ask questions too, feedback was also useful. Just have to remember to never ask the same question twice and write everything down

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

    • Obviously in banking the workload is extremely variable so it is difficult to time up everything so you are always equally busy.

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • They like to challenge you and if you respond to the challenge they will up the next one. Might be a bit nerve racking but you will learn

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I had one super star analyst that really assisted my learning he was always there to help me whenever necessary and was always keeping me involved
