    The Role

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

    • It has been one of the richest professional experiences that I've had. From day 1 you are encouraged to learn by taking responsibility and being exposed to important market players in the finance industry.

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

    • When working in the different teams, you feel part of each of them and taken into account by managers to help in important tasks which challenge and take you out of your comfort zone.

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

    • Analytics and Sales managers are always keen on catch-up to make sure you're doing well in the tasks assigned and that you feel part of the team. They really take care of you.

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

    • Regular hours, 8 to 6 at the beginning of the internship. At some point, you could feel the time pressure as we had several projects to work with and needed extra time, so stayed until late.

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

    • A lot of exposure was given since day one and you were given different tasks to help the teams you were assigned to.

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

    • It has definitely developed my skills in a way which another internship wouldn't have; mostly soft skills which will be valuable for my future career.

    5/5
