Rothschild Spring Insight Review

A very useful and in-depth insight that provided good awareness of the different aspects of GFA.

We were treated well

Guidance from analysts and also from the sessions run by Rothschild employees as they helped guide us through our project. Also the HR reps were very supportive and approachable throughout.

Yes, developed team work skills, persistence and determination as well as maintaining focus as there were days we worked late on our project

Very well structured. Each day we had an extensive schedule and numerous talks from business reps as well as a project to work on which developed our knowledge of M&A and built on the information that we had learnt throughout the week. It gave us an opportunity to meet analysts in the business working in similar divisions to that of our project, which gave us a true insight into life as a Rothschild GFA analyst. We also took part in CSR within a local park which was part of the wildlife trust: we worked to improve its physical appearance, enhancing our teamwork skills which was a great opportunity to further get to know the other interns.

Nice and relaxed. The other interns were genuine and focused and the HR reps were lovely and very approachable.

We had an extensive presentation session which was fantastic and so useful in helping us really see the positives and negatives of our own presentation style. We engaged in networking on the first day and worked within teams throughout the week. Which enhanced numerous personal skills.

Definitely a truly representative insight in terms of what a full time role would be like. We got the opportunity to hear from numerous employees, as well as shadow analysts and get advice from analysts with regards to our project, so we gained a detailed and honest account of what it would be like.

Again, the insight was very useful in giving a true representation of the firms culture. We had a tour of the historical archive on the first day, we shadowed analysts, we heard from numerous business reps and this gave a true account of the culture

Very useful, it gave a detailed account of the roles within GFA, with regards to the different sectors too.

We were reimbursed for travel and lunch vouchers were provided. Also for people not living in London they were reimbursed for their accomodation

Networking lunch on the first day and then two shadowing sessions and talks from different business reps throughout the week.

We had an event on the first day to get to know each other and a networking lunch on the first day too

Yes, the CSR schemes

Yes
