Overview
The majority of the day consisted of listening to different people speak from analysts to Vice Presidents. After the talks we had the opportunity to open up discussions and ask questions. The talks were focused at understanding the different teams in Jeffereries and what Investment Banking actually does. There were a couple assessments throughout the week that were spread across the 4 days.
Skills
Presentation skills improved a lot , we had a session giving us tips on how to do so and also opportunity to practice. Networking skills also developed greatly , you have the ability to network with your peers and current employees at the company.
Business Insight
The talks covered a lot of information and processing all of that during the time was challenging but possible. The insight given was very useful and provided a better understanding of what Investment Banking is really about.
Culture
The company culture was really friendly , most people were easy to talk to and were open to have more discussions in the future. The atmosphere amongst my peers was great however it became tense during the assessments due to nerves and the eagerness to convert this opportunity into a summer internship.
Your Impressions
The insight was semi enjoyable, it was very intense and not enough breaks were given which took away from the enjoyment. It would also have been a better experience if we had some speed networking sessions that allowed us to connect with our peers in the spring week more. The suspense built around the assessments also contributed to reducing the overall enjoyment.
Yes
Try to get an understanding of what Jefferies is about and what is important to Jefferies during the application process. The HR team is very friendly so use the interviews to get to know them more and show your overall motivation for IB/ER and your motivation to come to Jefferies.
