What part of your banking experience helped you the most in your career?

Whether you're still in banking or exited to another field, what about your banking experience helped you out the most in your career? Did your firm/group open new doors, did you develop a good relationship with a senior who helped you out, did you learn any skills that proved beneficial, or was there something else that helped you get where you wanted to be?
