    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The first day involved strengths and networking training as well as overviews for GM and GB. The second day was a full day of technical training, learning about valuation methods. The third day was talks from varying desks from GB, followed by a networking session. The last day was an Assessment Centre for the Summer Internship.
