Risk Management Analyst Review

The internship was very well structured with a lot of support and many people willing to devote time and energy into your development.

I was able to sit down and speak to many people in the company in different positions and see what the possibilities in the company are. they showed me loads of respect and gave me plenty of information. they also constantly are there if you need any help or just want to have a talk to discuss something that you may need help on.

I had weekly sessions with my manger to talk about my progress and any challenges I was facing during my time.

I had a good amount of work to keep me busy and give me time to learn more about how things work in the company.

My project was very heavy so I was given a lot of responsibility and trust by all my colleagues.

I was able to develop many skills and earn more about the world of work in general. The skills learnt are definitely transferable and are going to help me in the future,

In my office at Belgrave house, the general atmosphere is very collaborative and enjoyable. I am able to speak to many people and grow my network within the business. The interns also make the place very enjoyable as we try to socialize and help each other develop in our roles.

the work placement overall was very organized and structured for many reasons. First of all, the campus team in human resources planned many events for us to attend both having fun and learning about the business. Secondly, the team that you are in also organizes many training sessions to improve your skills.

In terms of personal training and development of myself as a valued individual member of the team and community of interns, the company invested a lot of time and energy into us. Both through development and acquiring of new skills. They gave us lots of training and time with other colleagues to learn from their experiences.

future employment prospects within the organization are very appealing and common as you have many chances for mobility within the company, division and country. The culture of the company motivates you to leave your comfort zone and experience new things to try to develop yourself and improve in the company.

There was a very good social scene within the company and the interns specifically. As interns we had many events organised by human resources and also individually organised where we would get to know each other more and build relationships. Also individual teams had events socially for team building purposes.

The cost of living and socialising is pretty high as it is placed in Victoria, Central London. So the food would be a little bit expensive and the travel costs as well because you have to take the train to most places. If you go for a night out you may have to spend quite a bit there because most places in London are a bit overpriced.

The nightlife is very good as there are many clubs available and there are also other things. So you have a lot of choice to choose from whether you want a quiet night out or go clubbing and listen to a specific type of music. The only problem I would say is that it is a bit expensive but if you don’t go out too often it should be more than fine.

There are other things that you could get involved with. There is a long list but things that I done were volunteering to help fix pathways in a park and make it safer for children to view the nature, football at Hyde park with the team and the other interns and just in general going out to have fun and get to know each other more.
