About You
It was very well organised with great presenters and was good fun overall.
From the analyst level up to MD's everyone made me feel valued both as a potential employee but also as a character.
You could ask any question you wanted so long as you could think of one.
It definitely built up some of my financial accounting knowledge gaps and could help me in some finance/economics modules.
The Company
Very well structured, with all 5 days packed with presentations, workshops, networking event and even drinks.
Very friendly and casual. The mix of people was amazing!
Invested their time in explaining quite a lot of things.
Networking and shadowing were extremely helpful to understand the role of an analyst.
Even having a chat at the company cafe could help you get a grasp of what the culture is like at Rothschild.Shadowing definitely gave you a feel of what it is like during the actual working hours.
Reaffirmed my interest in finance in general and advisory in particular.
Everything Else
Networking opportunities with analysts up to MD's as well as shadowing analysts on two different floors.
Afternoon tea with Directors, lunch with analysts, overall casual and fun.
Rothschild encourages team spirit so employees would go out to have drinks or even go together on ski trips.
Definitely, amazing program, amazing people, you learn a lot and you can get fast-tracked for an interview for the summer internship!
