A Day in the life of a TD Canada Trust Management Associate
8:00 a.m. Time to get my day started. My e-mail inbox is full with Personnel Announcements, Charity Fundraising Updates (yesterday was the Stair Climb, my legs are still burning) and several responses from key business managers. I have been assigned the task of implementing a new costing system for our entire business! I'm always up for a challenge.
8:30 a.m. My manager calls on his way into the office. He received my most recent project update and is quite happy with the results. He asks me to present my preliminary report to our business unit’s Vice President in a few weeks. He’ll arrange the meeting time and location.
8:45 a.m. I take a few minutes to respond to the e-mails. A member of the Information Systems team requires some additional clarification on my request so she can provide me with the proper data for analysis. This one will be easier to explain over the phone.
9:30 a.m. I have a telephone conference with Finance in fifteen minutes. It is short notice, however, an integral part of my project. I need to verify some numbers, make some amendments and augment the current reporting. They’re on board and impressed with my approach and will have it done in a few days.
10:45 a.m. One of the Information Analysts asks for my input on his new report. I ask a lot of questions but he doesn't seem to mind. I take advantage of every opportunity to learn more about this business. I’m only here for 6 months. I make a few suggestions and get back to my project.
11:20 a.m. An e-mail from my manager. He is preparing a business case to present to the Mortgage Product group and is requiring some analytics to solidify his position. Right up my alley. I send a quick e-mail to the business unit manager and request some reports so I can get to work on it.
12:30 p.m. Lunch time. I’ll have the Special – soup and a sandwich and grab today’s newspaper to read.
1:40 p.m. The phone rings. It’s my Mentor calling to ask if I would like to meet him for lunch next week at a nearby Bistro. He has been a part of TD Canada Trust for over 25 years. His advice is invaluable and he always finds time for me. This will be a great time to discuss my upcoming meeting with my business unit VP.
2:00 p.m. I have a meeting with a Unit Manager to gather some more information. She is quite interested in the project and its impact to our business. She shows me some very useful information that she has compiled. This will save me quite a bit of time. I’ll be sure to keep in contact with her. She’s a great resource.
3:15 p.m. I immediately start to update my model to reflect this new information. One of the Administrative Assistants brings over a fax. It’s the reports I requested earlier today. I’ll set some time aside tomorrow to give them a thorough review. I’ll stay on this task for now.
4:25 p.m. The meeting with my business unit Vice President has been confirmed. Two weeks from today, at her downtown office. I start to compile my findings into a presentation document. I anticipate some revisions, so I had better get a head start.
5:00 p.m. Wow! It’s 5 o’clock already. Today has flown by. I’m meeting up with a few other Associates before heading to the gym and then home.
