Hi Harry, i am on the Finance Graduate Scheme and have had many highlights! I am currently on my 'Customer' placement which i am really enjoying. The work i do is based in mortgages and not a finance focused role - this has allowed me to develop new skills. Last week i had the opportunity to shadow a Business Development Manger and meet mortgage brokers - getting to speak to new people and different stakeholders has been my highlight of this placement. I hope this helps.

Thank you for your answers, I appreciate the responses.
Following on from your answer James, you say you are currently in the 'Customer' placement. Do you know the focus of the 4 different placements you will be engaging in through your time in the Finance Graduate Scheme?
