    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The insight involved three days of interesting talks from the equity research, multi asset, and fixed income divisions. We were then set a task based on the skillset of each division and had to pitch an investment to a current Fidelity associate. Each day provided opportunities to network with intern peers and current associates, as well as a strong insight into the workings of the firm.
