My name is Alexandra Mattei and I'm a 2018 graduate at ANZ. I work in the Australia division and I'm currently rotating in emerging corporate.
I applied at ANZ on the recommendation of my sister who completed the graduate
program two years prior and had a really great experience.
My day involves working with my team of six and supporting the managers to analyze financials, follow customer queries, and just do general follow-up.
I’ve realized that people are so approachable and happy to help. When I started I was a little bit nervous to ask for help and to reach out to people.
But I've since learned that people are really happy to help you, and as soon as they’ve found out that you've just started, well they're all ears.
Probably my perception before was ANZ was a bank and a lot of people think that banks are very rigid but that's actually not the case, that ANZ is quite the opposite.
We work in an ever-changing environment and nothing about our role is static.
We're always developing, it's a real learning environment which I really enjoy.
Fitness is really important for me in my daily life. I love all types of exercise…
I do a lot of running, I do boxing, I do circuit training. Where there's movement, I'm keen.
I was a little bit unsure about applying to a bank at the start and I'm so glad that I did because I'm really enjoying my time here and I talked to all the other graduates and they seem to be really enjoying it and learning a lot as well.
They're a really happy bunch.
