Investment Banking Summer Analyst Review

The internship was excellent. The job was absolutely interesting and every person in the team was super nice to the interns. We had the chance to learn a lot in just 10 weeks and we grew both from a personal and a professional point of view. I really like the culture of the company and the environment as well.

My colleagues were very helpful with the interns. Every person in the team was willing the teach us and to help us to improve our skills and to learn. While on one side they spent a lot of time explaining and teaching us, on the other side they could save time as a result of the interns' support. They trusted us and gave us responsibilities,

I believe we received the right support and guidance from the supervisors. Every intern was assigned to a buddy - an analyst of the team - and a mentor - a senior person of the team. Mentors and buddies represented reference points for us. Moreover, every member of the team offered us his help throughout the whole internship. Intern staffer and staffer paid a lot of attention to us and followed us throughout the weeks.

On a daily basis I had a good balance between busy hours and slower times. Depending on the project on which I was working, I faced different business levels. Overall, I am happy about the balance and the variability of the days. I never got bored and I always worked on interesting tasks. I also found time to train and review things I learned.

I believe I received the right responsibilities. Moreover, I was happy to see how the amount of responsibility I was given increased and improved throughout the time. At the beginning, they gave me time to adapt and to learn the job, then they started giving me harder and more challenging tasks, trusting and encouraging me.

I believe I learned a lot during this internship and I am sure this will be helpful for my life. I grew both from a personal and a professional point of view. From a professional perspective, I had the chance to see very interesting projects, linked to companies and to the business in the world. I also got familiar with a particular industry. Then I learned how to deal with time pressure and how to be organized and precise.

The atmosphere in the office was very good and the environment was enjoyable. Everybody was helpful and willing to give support. It was full of smart and nice people, who were also humble and willing to learn. It was exciting to work in such a dynamic environment, where you could learn something new every day. You could never get bored.

The internship was very well organized. The intern staffer did an amazing job in organizing our schedule and staffing us on different projects, based on our daily capacity. He always listened to us and he always helped us to find the right daily balance. This helped us to learn how to be more efficient and to organize our work.

The team invested a lot of time on teaching to us and helping us. I was positively surprised about how every person was able to find time to explain to me and help me. I felt valued and I believe the team really wanted us to learn and grow. They gave us the chance to provide support and feel helpful for the rest f the team.

The internship is supposed to help both the firm and the intern to understand if a there might be a future collaboration. The whole internship is supposed to give the intern the chance to show how he/she can learn and grow in the future. Interns don't compete one against each other and everyone is put in the position to learn.

There was a very good social scene amongst employees and interns. Everyone was very humble and they treated us very well. We felt involved in the culture of the team. We built a good relationship with the other members of the team.

I think the area in which I worked was very good for living. Everything I needed was close to home and to the office. Moreover, the city has a lot of nice places were young people can go. Distances to reach some places might be a bit long, but the underground works perfectly, so you can easily go anywhere. Moreover, the area in which I worked was full of young people of my age doing my job, so I had a lot to share with them.

The night life was awesome. The variety of places is great and you can choose to have different types of nightlife. It might take a bot to reach some places, due to the width of the city, but with the underground you can go anywhere.

During the weekend you could organize good trips and nights. During the internship there were also different events that helped us to know each other better and to build strong relationships also outside the work.
