    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • We were able to speak to analysts in a range of divisions, as well as listening in to analyst and associate deal teach ins which were really useful. This was conducted over Zoom, everything went really smoothly - a very enjoyable experience. We were allowed to ask questions whenever and also at the end of any talks we were encouraged to reach out to the analysts.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • Definitely, I would say I have learnt a lot more about Investment Banking and the certain work at an analyst level that is involved at each stage. You hear a lot about the deals that go on in the finance world but rarely do I hear it from people who actually took part in that deal. It was really awesome to hear what they had to say.
