As a Muslim woman, glass ceilings are often pointed out but never dented. Imposter syndrome can be crippling, intimidating you from taking on great opportunities. It takes a fairly good internship to make you feel as though you’ve broken that glass ceiling, but it takes a phenomenal experience to make you feel as though it was never even there. Today marks a week since the end of my time as an intern at Barclays. Two months packed with the most amazing opportunities and surrounded by the most thoughtful colleagues, pouring endless time into my growth and development. ~Rahma Jeilani - 2019 Summer Stars intern, placed in the Communications team at Barclays~
