  • I really enjoyed the programme because I got the chance to interact with a lot of people. First of all, it was great to meet all the spring interns (not only from the finance for non-finance spring, but also from the technology and firmwide spring programmes). Moreover, we met with many employees and the HRs. It was really a learning atmosphere.

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?
  • There were a lot of opportunities to ask questions which I believe was very differentiating. Obviously we were many spring interns so it was sometimes difficult to ask a question but the employees were very open and tried to answer as many questions as possible. I believe the interactive sessions were also great opportunities to get in touch with employees.

    4/5

  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?
  • What I really liked about the programme is that we had opportunities to network with employees, but also with all the spring interns.

It is a great opportunity to improve and broaden one's skillset and to contemplate a career in finance, even for students who don't have a finance background.
