    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The programme lasted four days and included networking and skills sessions, a group project and presentations from a variety of current employees from different divisions and seniority levels. In such a short period of time, I was able to get an in-depth understanding of the company, its culture and the Global Advisory division.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • Besides the technical knowledge developed from the Fitch Learning session and case study presentation, I was also able to enhance my collaborative skills during the group project. The assessment centre workshop also provided great tips for the interview and assessment centre stages.
