A day in the life of a Graduate trainee - General Management in the United Kingdom

Where I hope to be in 5 years

I would like to do an MBA.

My advice to students considering work

Decide what you want as early as possible, it is absolutely critical, getting a job is becoming more specialised and the more time you have to work towards your goal the better. Don't leave it till 3rd year!

What I do

I rotate around the bank in six months placements, learning as much as possible whilst doing business as usual, with a view to assume a leadership role at the end of the placements.

Skills I use and how I developed them

Society leadership roles and internships have helped.

What I like most

I enjoy the fact that it is project based, and there is a lot of variety.

What I like least

There can be periods with little to do.

What would I change? I would be in a company with international aspirations.
