From my experience resilience is the most important thing that helps me to get to the objectives. Sometimes things are not easy but if you really want something keep trying, ask for help if needed and push yourself. Don’t give up easily but also don’t be too harsh on your self when things don’t go as planned, sometimes it happens and you can’t control it. If you did everything in your power to reach what you wanted to and it still didn’t happen it wasn’t meant to be.

What do you like about your job and the company?
You get to know so many different teams in the bank every day. I really appreciate the holisitic outlook this placement gives me, since I only joined recently it helps me to understand deeper how the bank works, the culture and how all the teams are interconnected. No days are the same and every day it feels like I'm learning new things and new aspects of the bank.

Finding your passion is critical to your success in role, I am driven by my own personal values and shape my role around my strengths enabling me to succeed across a variety of tasks. I often find myself excited to be tackling a new challenge, embedding learning and delivering for our customers. Bringing your true self to work and showcasing your skills provides you a strong foundation but its the wider team that supports you to bring the best you can, working together to achieve the impossible.

I always think that most of the time we create our own insecurity. For example, ff you ever feel like you have impostor syndrome, just ask yourself, what are the odds of you really being here by mistake? Of everyone else being much better than you? They're always low and they're is always going to be someone else in a similar situation to you. As another example, if you apply for a job and get a rejection, where only 5% of applicants pass, there is no reason to bring yourself down, 95% of people will be in your same situation. The odds of passing were low but the only way to beat those odds is trying again, and 5% is much better than 0. Many use realism to be negative but I believe it is the best way to have a positive attitude and keep going!
