About You
I enjoyed the insight very much. It carried out everything that it promised to do and more. I met many incredible people and made great friends, and came out of it with a much better understanding of Investment Banking and Rothschild.
We were always taken care of and all our questions were answered very well throughout the week.
We were given enough information and resources as required. All tasks given were manageable and the staff were more than willing to help.
I learnt more about M&As and Investment Banking and this will help in my societal involvements as well as future internships and career.
The Company
I felt it was well structured with enough scheduled each day to keep us well occupied.
Everyone was great fun - serious when work had to be done but also full of personality,
We were able to talk to analysts and directors which trained both technical knowledge and soft skills. We were also given the chance to go for a very informational and engaging presentation skills workshop which I found very beneficial.
Through workshadowing I was able to talk to many analysts and this gave me a good insight into how it would be like to work at Rothschild, from entry level to progressively moving up the career ladder.
I came out of the insight understanding that the company values its people and is very team oriented and family-like.
By talking to analysts and listening to case studies, I understood that this career is more than just crunching numbers and made me want to pursue it further.
Everything Else
Reimbursed for accommodation and transport.
Yes we had numerous opportunities to do so.
There was ample time to walk around and make new acquaintances and learn about each other.
Community service is very highly regarded here and we had first hand experience.
Definitely!
