    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • There were skill-building sessions including confidence, presentation and networking. I gained an insight into the financing solutions division and was presented with a case study. I worked in a team of 4 to create and deliver a presentation. I gained a wholistic insight into the bank's culture and values as well as internship and graduate programmes.
