    The Role

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

    • It was a fantastic experience, especially considering the difficult circumstances with covid this summer. We even had a virtual quiz night and a volunteering session!

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

    • Everybody was very approachable and encouraged us to ask any questions at all that we might have. Our input was also always highly appreciated, whether it was just a general comment/ idea during a conversation or in regard to a project that we had worked on.

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

    • They were always just a phone call away and the tasks were always clearly set out in a weekly meeting with our managers.

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

    • Due to the circumstances, it was a little hard to have the perfect balance with so many virtual coffee chats one wanted to schedule in to get to know the team better. However, overall it was a good balance of working on projects, participating in learning sessions and general networking.

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

    • This summer, it was generally a little difficult, but there were some tasks as well which we worked on that got directly sent to the clients, after a small inspection that is!

    2/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • We learned a variety of things ranging from time management over teamwork to being determined to improve constantly. And the training on different asset classes and financial markets as a whole will surely help us at university as well!
