    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • It is a five day programme consisting of two days of virtual events and three days of in-person events. A variety of programmes are planned each day, including sharing sessions by senior employees/MDs in the bank, networking events and desk shadowing sessions. Each day starts at 9am and ends at around 6pm.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • The programme offers a great opportunity for me to understand the various divisions in the business of investment banking. I talked to employees from the more well-known "front-office" roles as well as employees working in the infrastructure team. For example, in my last day, I shadowed at the Chief Administration Office and heard about how the CAO facilitates fighting against financial crimes. It is really eye-opening.
