Began my passion for the lifestyle and
ethic of London. Accessing my ability to
learn and interact with people such as
brokers and team members
Here I was able to practice my administrative
skills and people skills, as I had to help with
finance processing in the office and also
interview people on the streets.
This has earned me such skills as teamwork,
leading and logistics as I have had to
coordinate with strangers under stress trying to
achieve maximum efficiency in the task at
hand.
This required me to take on a simulated stock
market following the FTSE 100. Within this time
I came 5th out of 120 teams of 2, working with
someone with 0 understanding of stocks. In
this 3-hour window we made a 57K profit. This
shows team leading skills as well as risk
assessment in the field I aspire to be in.
Participated in the HSBC
Sock market challenge
