I did mine at RBS. I wore trousers, shirt and tie, don't necessarily need a jacket/blazer. This will be sufficient.

I'm in year 10 and am planning to do my work experience in the same barclays. However, im unsure of how to approach this and ask for the role (i do not know how to contact them in the first place as i dont have any details nor guidance). Do you have any advice?
