  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I have learnt about the process of underwriting, how to approach a new risk, building relationships with external and internal stakeholders. As well as this I have improved my studying skills and demonstrated this through the exams I have passed so far.

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I do enjoy my role and the programme. However, I do think there is room for improvement as the programme is very rigid in its format and not mouldable to each individual's preferences.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • Well structured as there are monthly tasks and goals to complete.

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
