    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Very nice place to work for and be part of - whether it is the team or just the company itself, everyone is very welcoming and do take time to help us through the 10 weeks here.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • Thanks to my previous experiences, I quickly find myself some task that could be helpful for the team and contribute in some way. They were all always willing to help me.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • Managers are extremely busy but always find 5 min to chat. Supervisors are key and probably one of the best part of the internship. Co chair prepares you tons on exciting project to work on and take always the time to seat and give you feedback on weekly basis.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Extremely busy but for a reason - they did not ask me to stay late but I wanted to take the time to understand well the business and gave myself also some work to do.

    5/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • It is difficult to take on responsibility as you cannot trade or talk to client (FCA rule) - however, you can always contribute to some extent and I felt that they sometimes gave me a lot of responsibilities when dealing with clients and manage lists.

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • Always - internships give you more than skills but help you to assess yourself.
