About You
Very much, it was great fun and also very informative
Good, they were very positively encouraging us to apply and had lots of great speakers
Not so much support; it was very informative about the internship/graduate schemes, they didn't give much help during the exercises
The information given will definitely help in applying, not so much in my studies
The Company
Very good, there was a clear timetable. Some sections felt rushed
Very good, I met some great people and all of the employees I talked to were really helpful
They had arranged many good speakers and had around 50 employees available at lunch to network with
Much of the time was spent showing what a great company it was to work at, and it seemed genuine
Everyone seemed genuinely positive about the culture
I really enjoyed it and definitely will be considering finance more seriously, though I don't know which field this would be in yet
Everything Else
No travel expenses were reimbursed, but lunch and refreshments were provided
Yes lots
Good we had over an hour to network with current employees
Yes there seemed to be lots of volunteering opportunities
Yes
