  • The FSA ' Insight Day' event is an invaluable opportunity for students to find out about the Regulator and its objective. The day was extremely informative, with useful tips and guidance on completing applications for its graduate programmes. The employees were exceptional and supportive, giving me an insight of the people I would be working with should my application succeed.
