Overview
Using programming skills and maintaining a system for attaching fraud data to UK individuals as well as analysing data that confirms an individual’s identity. Working under Senior Analysts on fraud related projects and analysing data to find the most valuable bespoke fraud prevention strategies for clients. Delivering monthly analytical reports and/or data to clients in the required timescales
Skills
Learnt how to navigate WPS and how to code in the SAS language. Presentation skills and speaking to bigger audiences. Time management with projects and deadlines. My excel skills have improved significantly.
Responsibilities
Yes, especially the longer I was there the more responsibility I gained. By the end of my placement I was responsible for the provision of multiple processes and delivering reports to contracted clients. I worked on multiple projects under the Senior Analysts and I was also involved in the training of two new students and facilitated their onboarding.
Support & Guidance
I received a lot of support during my placement from every member in my team. My colleagues were always happy to answer any questions and my line manager scheduled in 1-2-1s each week and always checked how I was finding the workload. If there was an area I was struggling with the appropriate support was giving to solve it.
Culture
The company culture was really good. I worked from home the majority of my placement due to the pandemic so unfortunately most of the company wide events were cancelled. Having said that, the company still did online activities/challenges and quiz nights. There were a wide variety of groups such as Woman in Experian, as well as a mixed friendly football team. In the office there was a games room, including a pool table.
Your Impressions
I had a really good experience working for Experian and although I was not a long term employee I was treated as such. My team was incredibly supportive and challenged me in the best way. I feel Experian were good at rewarding good work and they really worked with my timeline in terms of what work I was ready for. Even outside of my team, everyone I spoke to was really nice and happy to offer support.
Yes
Be honest about what your interests are and ask any questions that you have in the interviews. Apply even if you think the job description looks daunting as they will train you!!
