    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The insight program included a well-packed schedule of panel discussions, introduction to the different teams at Lazard (e.g. the restructuring team, ECM, DCM, Financial Sponsors Group teams etc.). The insight program also provided us with a Buddy Analyst that allowed us to job-shadow them on Day 2 and get a feel of what Lazard is like. There was a group presentation to be completed by Day 3.
