My experience of the hiring process was really positive. The communication from People Support and Sarah (my line manager), made me feel prepared and ready for starting at Rathbones, with all of the information I needed. I had a full timetable for my first two weeks, which meant I knew exactly what I was doing and could hit the ground running. The whole experience was really well organised and made me feel included and welcomed straight away.” – Jane Wright, Client Service Executive - Financial Planning (London)
