Transcript for Umut
My name is Umut. I study mathematics at the University of Warwick and now I'm working for HSBC on the student development team. First year of uni I lived on campus which was really awesome - loved it to bits. I met lots of new people and it was just really convenient to be on campus. As I'm a recent graduate I can relate to students and I feel that I'm making a difference for students within HSBC.
Get yourself insured, part 1
Umut: First night I moved into the house in Leamington, unfortunately there was a group of students that thought it would be a good idea to kung-fu kick all the wing mirrors of all the cars along the road and mine was one of the victims unfortunately.
Jemma: Another really good thing to buy is insurance. The cost of replacing your laptop, your mp3 player, all your CDs and clothes if you get burgled is massive.
Nathan: We know that accidents can happen when you're a student and some students get targeted. If your parents have home insurance with HSBC you'll be insured for free.
Alternatively, student home insurance comes to you for as little £25 per.. sounds like I'm a salesman! (laughter) - bloody oath Sheila!

Jana: I haven't thought about it really, I have to think about it sorry. No 4....
Alex: is to keep your ear to the ground, there are so many opportunities out there while you're at university and the time goes so quickly so take advantage of that time and go for any opportunity that you possibly can.
Jana: Study more.
Mike: My top tip would be, if you are a smoker, stop smoking now.
Jana: Erm...make erm, make new friends.
