Overview
I accepted work from a variety of teams. This typically involved reading and editing reports, updating sales databases, creating graphs and finding sales comparisons. On most days I accompanied senior employees for their meetings in order to learn more about the project. There were also frequent networking events and training seminars
Skills
My excel and data analysis skills have greatly improved and I have been introduced to markets and asset classes that I hadn't considered before. I learnt how to prepare investment memoranda and sales teasers and was able to practice and develop my modelling skills.
Responsibilities
I was impressed by how much responsibility I was given, even on the first day. It was great to be a part of real projects, often with strict deadlines.
Support & Guidance
My team, and especially my mentor, were very supportive and also gave plenty of advice on my career in general.
Culture
There was a definitely a positive culture/atmosphere. People were friendly and I was invited to drinks and meals with the team.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed the internship and benefitted greatly from it, especially with regards to understanding potential next steps in my career
Yes
Take every opportunity to network and don't wait for people to introduce themselves to you. Be proactive about meeting people right from the start.
