    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • The internship was insightful as I was provided with exposure to people from a range of backgrounds and divisions within the company. They were open to share their experiences and career paths that they had gone through so I was able to learn from and gain advice from them. I learnt about the different sectors and divisions of the company and what each sector involves
