  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • On a day to day basis, I did various things. A lot of it was hearing speeches from people from different parts of the company e.g. Audit and Assurance. On the 3rd week, we did a business experience week, and we went to corporate partners to get some experience - I went to a stockbroking firm called Rowan Dartington.

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

My favourite was the week at Rowan Dartington because they really made us feel included and were to supportive.
