    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • The 2-week programme was packed with seminars, talks and projects that were not only helpful in terms of getting interns to understand what analysts do on a daily basis but also very fascinating and provides a good opportunity to work with the team and other interns

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • The employees were friendly and willing to chat with interns providing that they were not too busy at that time. Interns are also be looked after and stay in close contact with HR who listened to their input and provided any support needed in a timely manner

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • The team and HR were very willing to support interns, both in dealing with technical information and managing your time. There was also plenty of guidance when it comes to general internship or working experience

    4/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • Research and teamwork skills are the two aspects that benefit the most from the programme, which will be useful for university and beyond. Furthermore, presentation skills are also enhanced significantly

    4/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • The programme was packed with different sessions and networking opportunities, as well as downtime for interns to work on their own projects. It might seem to be overwhelming sometimes but the whole calendar was well-scheduled so that interns have enough time to move between venues

    5/5
