    3/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • Everyone had responsibilities. I felt that the individuals were motivated and felt accountable. Everyone was listened and the details of day to day basis were valuated. I think that I cannot find a place like this anywhere. I am looking forward to come back next year and learn more about the culture and company!

    5/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • Every detail was thought. From the first day to the last one. We were well informed since the beginning about how everything was going to be. The only default is that no one knew about how was going to be the last day (giving the offer day) and that made everyone nervous.

    3/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • They invested a lot. I feel grateful about the time and effort that they have invested on me. There were not only online trainings but also I could go to organized events and meeting with senior people afterwards. It has been a pleasure learning from the bests and this is one of the main reasons why I want to come back.

    5/5

  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?
  • Company Parties/Events

    4/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • I am going to JPM as a career, not as a place to find a job. I truly believe that nowadays JPMorgan is one of the best companies to start your career development, because I appreciate that they not only think about the results but also on the personal development.

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • J.P. Morgan makes easy for you to meet other interns; people that are on the same situation as you. They organized three social events: when starting, in the middle and at the end of the internship. I have met really nice colleagues that I will make sure to follow their steps and grow with them.

    5/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • It depends a lot on where you go and how you go. The town is way cheaper than London. Therefore, you can live by paying much less than in the big city

    4/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • Bournemouth has been for years a beach holidays town. It has not a lot of fashionable clubs, but it is nice to walk by the beach and going dancing with your friends. There are events, cinema, nice places to dinner...I nice place to discover with your friends during your summer internship experience.

    4/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • Everything is thought. JPM is prepared to help 360 degrees to their employees. I could participate in societies focused on sport and other societies focused on family...everything is prepared so that the worker can choose and enjoy the stay. JPM is prepared for everyone; gender, age, origin, motivation...thank you!
