About You
It was an incredible insight, I really enjoyed it. Unlike may other banks, we had the chance to be in the firm for two weeks, which I felt gave us a true insight into the division and the firm.
People are so great in this firm, they really want to help you and teach you. There wasn't one person I asked to meet for coffee who worked at the firm, who said no.
So much guidance and support, everyone at the firm really wants to help the interns and teach them.
I wouldnt say that the skills I received helped me with my degree at all, but they definitely really helped me with life and with what I want to do in the future.
The Company
I cannot fault the structure of this insight. Given the fact that bankers schedules change all the time, it was surprising how perfect the schedule was, to every half an hour.
Great, the interns were a bit competitive
They properly invested by ensuring we were able to speak to a lot of people in the firm, including really senior people.
It is very confidential so was hard to really understand, but they did their best.
2 weeks made that happen. Had it been 1 week, I do not think I would have really understood the culture.
Very good.
Everything Else
Paid.
So many opportunities
Great, mixture of casual and non casual ones.
Yes, several talks on this.
Definitely
