The tasks can be quite satisfying if you are willing to really push your team to give and help with satisfying work.
At the moment I am in a slow period of work and there does seem to be a trend of technology graduates not being given enough work. However, the work that is done is definitely meaningful. I am given the opportunity to provide real value to the company. My day-to-day tasks involve some graduate program work as I am a lead in the Graduate Community Committee and the NZ Graduate Ambassador. For my rotation role it would usually involve a morning huddle followed by interspersed meetings and downtime to focus on coding.
I am satisfied with the level of work I do. I am not 'pulling my hair out' stresses but I am kept busy and know that the work I do is valuable to my team and the wider business.
Currently sitting in commercial BDM team, working from an shared inbox, responding to brokers submissions for new business particularly in the SME space - I pick up a submission, go through the necessary steps to evaluate the risk, and underwrite it
