    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • On a day-to-day basis, my tasks would vary a lot. I could be creating pitch presentation, teaser documents and management presentation for clients. I could be in client meetings or I could be creating company profiles and complicated excels for trading comps or backups for presentations I am creating.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • My excel and presentation skills have improved dramatically as well as my overall understanding of financial institutions and how they operate. I would also say that my interpersonal skills have improved as there have been a huge amount of opportunities to talk to people in the firm both at the analyst level and all the way up to MDs and Group Heads.
