What Does Learning On The Job Really Mean?

Hi Everyone!

I’m an incoming IB analyst, and I’m curious what people mean when they say you learn everything on the job. Does that mean you learn over the shoulder of other people with them showing you shortcuts and how to do everything? Or does everyone mostly keep to themselves when working and you have to figure out how to do everything on your own unless you ask a question? I did my summer virtually and am curious how everyone gets ramped up in the office. Thanks!
