    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • This role involved working with the EIA department to conduct audits across various divisions. As part of the 3-stage audit process, I supported the risk and control identification and assessment process, the write-up of overview documents, and conducted stakeholder meetings. In addition, I supported teams in regulatory mapping, issue validations and ICAAP pieces.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • Absolutely, the biggest skill being written and verbal communication which is incredibly important to do well in this industry. I need to be able to process many written documents and make them concise, to relay them in an effective manner.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • A lot. From the beginning, they viewed me not as an intern, but at as analyst. As somebody who enjoys stepping into the challenge, the work was very rewarding and I felt as part of the team.

    Support & Guidance

  • 4. How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
  • My department supports me whole-heartedly. They tailored the internship to me, and supported me whenever I expressed interest in a particular area or type of work. We were always transparent with each other which meant that they could support me and I, them. I received a lot of guidance from my team, who would take time to explain the task and how to execute it correctly.
