Lloyds TSB has a big charity culture as well

this year I was involved in organising an
Emerging Talent charity event that raised
nearly £10,000 for our previous charity of

I joined .... .... a rolling training
scheme of more specialised techniques, in
which there is some scope for the trainee
to input into the direction that their training
takes. This rolling scheme means that even
after a year in the job, there are still new things
for me to learn, which I like as it means that
my job is constantly changing and evolving,
which stops it from becoming monotonous.
As I have become trained in, and competent
in, a greater range of histological techniques, I
have also found that the level of responsibility
to which I am exposed has increased. This
is reflected in the number and type of tasks
which I am set on a daily basis, and the
direction in which my training has gone.
However, the department is set up to introduce
responsibility gradually, and so whilst the
level of responsibility that I have taken on
over the last year has grown, it is likely to
further increase as I spend longer in the job. ....Read the full Editorial
