    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • brought onto client meetings, and given a few PowerPoints slides to pull up. You have an hour of Q & A with one of the directors of a specific section of the business unit, and they share a wealth of knowledge about the firm and about what would be expected from you in terms of character and professionalism. It's a really great 3-day programme that paints a complete picture of the firm.
