    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • Fantastic experience which gave a true insight into the world of banking. Not for the faint hearted! Long hours and a project at the end of it but overall a very rewarding experience. Being immersed is the best way to learn, this programme offers a unique hands-on approach which I thoroughly enjoyed. It will show you whether banking is for you- sink or swim!
