    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • It was a great experience. I got to meet lots of very talented students from all over the world, made friends with many of them, had a chance to explore what JP Morgan does and what Operations is about. It was fantastic.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?

    • They truly cared about us and they showed it. For instance, they spent a lot of money on our accommodation and food. The hotel was amazing, with buffet breakfast, a gym, and right in front of the sea. In a more professional aspect, so many JP Morgan employees got involved in our programme through networking sessions, assessment of our group projects, shadowing and final interviews. Everything was planned to perfection and you could see they really put a lot of effort into it.

    5/5
  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?

    • They were always there for anything we needed.

    5/5
  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I don't think I'll use them in my degree, but with respect to future employability it was truly useful. Networking, teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, presenting... And many more transferable skills. Also, knowing how an investment bank like JP Morgan functions is really useful to develop a career in the sector.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • Everything was planned really well and we never had any issues. They really thought and took care of every little detail.

    5/5
  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    • All the students and employees I met were very nice. Everybody was willing to help, talk about themselves or give advice. The company felt like a good lace to work at, and the atmosphere within the interns was fantastic.

    5/5
  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • 3/5
  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?

    • 3/5
  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?

    • Everybody we talked to was extremely helpful. Nobody said no if we asked for help, advice, or if we could get in touch with them later on for future questions. That really talks about how people are in JP Morgan, considering how difficult it is to be hired by them.

    Everything Else

  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?

    • We had many networking sessions, at least 3 or 4 throughout a 5-day week. In all of them a good number of employees were present so that we could talk to peolpe who have different roles and levels of experience.
