    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • Insight week was highly enjoyable, both providing insight into what Bank of America Merrill Lynch does, the people there and the atmosphere. The week also enabled me to gain a large amount of industry knowledge for the time allowed in terms of what the various divisions through networking events, talks and discussions, especially the divisions that we choose to shadow in.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • Felt highly valued as an individual within BAML, both by other attendees and employees which enabled me to relate on a personal level - enabling me to learn more about the industry, current affairs and most importantly what people's lives are really like there.

    4/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • I feel that the perfect level of guidance & support was provided which allowed attendees of the spring week to get everything that they wanted out of it. A wide array of networking events enabled individuals to get any - and as many - questions that they had answered. Furthermore, whilst the week was well-structured to provide the resources for an optimal work-placed experience as well as meet people with a similar mindset and aspirations, but from a different background.
