    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • I really enjoy the insight programme since it is well structured. There are lots of opportunities to network with business representatives and people from other universities. It also provides a brief overview of the division in an interactive way.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • I felt quite valued since each of us was provided with excellent accommodation and convenient travel pick-ups. There are also many chances to ask questions whether it is in public or individual networking. The work shadowing was great since we are allowed to speak to our buddies in a private space.

    4/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • For group works, each group is provided with a business representative or coaches which guide us through projects and tasks. Their support is really valuable since it helped us to understand the business and had fun at the same time.

    5/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • The most important skill mentioned was soft skills such as networking and presentation skills. For a finance career, this is crucial to success since there are lots of interaction with clients and colleagues. It also extended my network across the top universities in the UK.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • There is a well-prepared booklet which contains all the essential information about the programme. The only thing is about the event order. I think it would be better to have "introduction into operations" before any work shadowing and networking events.

    5/5
