About You
I missed work shadowing and a deeper insight with employees in the business area I would like to join. Has my mentor been of the division I would like to apply, it would have been easier for both.
I felt very comfortable within the teams and organisers.
Every person I met was accessible and very kind when answering my doubts and queries.
Every single piece of knowledge is valuable. There is nothing you can learn and say it is a waste of time.
The Company
It was so a great experience I am willing to come again as soon as possible.
There was a last moment change of rooms, and the markets people were staying in outstanding apartments 3min away from the bank. I think it would be better if we all had the same type of hotel/service out of the bank.
There is no better insight than meeting the people working in it, and seeing them all happy and smiley
Everything Else
I bought and Oyster card because I needed to go from vitoria to stratford, I cannot say if they will reimburse it or not because it is still very early to know it. It was just last week and now is easter holidays. But I do believe there will be no inconvenient.
Maybe we could have focused in teams differentiating where we would like to apply and have an extra day with this focused networking.
Some were quite short for us, but I do understand that the employees do not have too many time to loose networking.
I have already recommend it!
