Barclays Bank PLC - The First Year

What a fantastic journey I have been on working full time in this Bank. To be honest the first year was a bit boring, but I suppose that was always going to be the case. During this first year a would learn some of the simple tasks which a new employee could tackle. These would include posting Bank Statements, answering the telephone and learning people skills. Something which in time I would need when dealing with the public. I worked in the machine room, learning how to process cheques and work a very large computer. These of course are no longer widely used, but they where at the time. Overtime I would learn how to work with other members of staff in this enviroment. Later I would be taught how to be the machine room assistant and the machine room supervisor. A whole new range of skills which I am still unable to declare, top secret!
