    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • It is informative and quite intense, we attended many presentations and took part in very interesting games. I definitely enjoy it. We really have the chance to talk to people, not only seniors but also newly graduates! Oh Also breakfast and lunch are complementary and they are really really good!

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • Haha, there were many of us (around 70) so it was a large group. But we were divided into small groups, so everyone was taken care of and I felt valued by people at UBS.

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • a lot!!!!! people at UBS are really nice. No matter how silly the questions we asked were, they didn't condemn us but answered them patiently. Like I said, we attended many presentations so it is really informative!

    5/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I now have a better understanding about how an investment bank works and what I will be doing as a banker in the future, which is something I wont be able to learn at uni. Also you really have the chance to improve your interpersonal skills and expand your professional connections!

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • they really respect us and value us, otherwise they wouldn't invite so many talented and inspiring speakers and organise so many interesting and eye-opening games!

    5/5

  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?
  • What I like about UBS insight program is that you really have the chance to get to know every division in an investment bank so that you can find out where your interest lies! Also you can work shadowing the division of your choice, which is fantastic!

    5/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
