    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • Over the first 3 days, we got insights into the company through numerous presentations and networking events. On the last day we presented a case study in front of the whole class and MDs which we worked on during the whole week. In addition, we had business etiquette workshops and listened to presentations about investment banking etc.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I was able to strengthen my communication and networking skills and in addition, I strengthened my English skills – I am a foreign student and therefore speaking English a week long was very beneficial to me. Furthermore, I could gain a lot of technical investment banking knowledge. There was also a seminar on business etiquette, which was quite beneficial.
