    Your Impressions

  • 5. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • Compared to a spring Insight I have done at a Swiss private bank in Zurich, I particularly enjoyed the involvement in different challenges/case studies. Furthermore, I was positively surprised with the Icebreaker challenges which made it easier to network with attendees and thus strenghtening the networking process. All in all, it has been a very pleasant experience which I will definitely recommend to all my friends who will start their first year in fall.
