    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • I absolutely loved the Spring Week! Having done an insight week at a different bank before, I expected it to be mainly about the different divisions at JPM. However, I was pleasantly surprised that most of the program was trainings and webinars. I definitely learned a lot during that week and during the "Continuing Education" series. I think that the virtual format of the spring week was successful as well! I am definitely going to apply to the Summer Program!

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?

    • I felt very valued during the Spring Week. We were given a lot of talks and educational webinars, even after the official Spring Week ended, which showed how the company really cares about its potential employees.

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • As an Economics student who takes a lot of modules in Finance, the information given to us during the Spring Week was very helpful. It gave me a general idea about what the money market is and helped me understand the big picture, not just economic theories behind it.
