    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Most days started with a few talks in the morning. Throughout the two week period we were put into small teams of about 6 to complete a project for a mock client, with a presentation in the second week. We met regularly with mentors and there were many fun quizzes, interactive teambuilding activities.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I learnt a lot about business etiquette/presentation skills and there were various sessions that explored how to identify your strengths and lots of general tips for future success. I learnt a lot about teamwork and how to successfully collaborate with people with such varied skillsets
