Jenny Capplis

AIB Capital Markets Graduate

"My experience on the AIB graduate programme has been exceptional. The training and exposure I have received since starting has been incredible. As part of the graduate programme, I have the option to do two rotations in different areas. This in turn has helped me gain knowledge in multiple areas. As part of the Capital Markets Graduate Programme, I have had the opportunity to pursue additional professional qualifications such as CFA, ACCA and QFA. Another great tool offered to AIB staff is iLearn, where you can complete courses that may help you with your role in the bank but there are also courses which are designed to help with developing interpersonal skills."

Ellana Price

AIB Operational Excellence Graduate

"The programme was initially daunting for me, coming from an Arts background with no prior experience in Finance or Business. However, AIB provided me the support necessary to succeed. Regular interactions with senior leaders who generously shared their knowledge and advice, a rotation-based structure that allowed me to work across multiple departments to enhance my knowledge. Additionally, I had the opportunity to engage in extracurricular activities that aligned with my personal passions, such as sustainability, LGBTQ+ issues, wellbeing and even podcasting. These activities enriched my experience, providing a sense of accomplishment and helping me feel integral to the organisation. The supportive and inclusive workplace culture at AIB encouraged my growth and made me feel truly valued."
