Overview
Series of presentations on IB, finance and the divisions within the bank as well as q&a sessions. There were also team building and opportunities for presentation and pitching ourselves. The day started at 0845 generally and ended at 1700. One of the days had a drinking networking at the end of the day so ended slightly later. There were some breaks throughout the day and an hour for the lunch which was provided.
Skills
There was a large focus on networking and developing communication skills and confidence when talking to seniors and asking questions. Also presentation skills and public speaking skills were developed. We were also given courses on softskills by an external provider dbl in which we learnt about effective teamwork and networking
Business Insight
It was very insightful to be able to speak with members of the company at all levels, from graduate to ED. This broad spread gives a good understanding of career prospects and what to expect when you enter the firm all the way through your career up to ED
Culture
Very friendly. Anyone would give up their time to talk and explain concepts. The employees were honest and felt very genuine in conversations and their experiences at the firm
Your Impressions
It was a very valuable experience, networking and discovering which business area suited and interested me most. Learning about this in person and first-hand is incomparable to online learning or reading.
