    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • I really enjoyed my week with JP Morgan and it gave me a great insight into the company as well as into the Finance industry as a whole!

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • The program was very well organized and we had several networking events where I really felt that the employees we spoke to, no matter of their level of seniority, had an interest in us and saw as potential colleagues.

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • We received a lot of support and guidance during the week. We had several financial classes and we were guided on how to practice for the upcoming interviews and how we could improve our knowledge within Finance.

    5/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • As an engineering student I think that the skills I developed will come to use during my studies to some extent but more importantly they will help me a lot during my future career.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • It was very well structured and organized.

    5/5

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?
  • It was great! People were very nice and the atmosphere was not as competitive as I imagined.

    5/5

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • The firm really invested in us and we were given quality financial training, networking sessions with senior people, etc.

    5/5

  • 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?
  • It gave me a great insight but I still think the only way to really understand the firm is to spend a longer time there, for example through a summer internship.

    4/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • It helped me understand the culture but it would have given me an even better insight if we would have spent longer time with a few people, for example at a dinner, in that way the conversation would have been more relaxed.

    4/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • It was very helpful and I am now eager to apply for the summer internship and pursue a career within finance.

    5/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?
  • It was an unpaid internship but we received breakfast and lunch everyday as well as accommodation and transportation to the office.


  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?
  • Yes, we had several networking events with people from different divisions and seniority levels.

    5/5

  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?
  • They were great. As I mentioned before the only thing I feel that could have been improved is that it could have been nice to have one longer dinner talking to the same people in order to make the atmosphere a bit more relaxed.

    4/5

  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
  • Yes, there was a presentation on the different things you can get involved in.

    5/5

  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?
  • For sure!
