The Role
Great Insight week, learnt a lot
They put a lot of time into the programme. Employees from various business lines do work, MDs take time out and partners come to talk too.
MD breakfasts
There's a busy timetable but it's very diverse
In IBD you can't work shadow but you are given a couple of case studies which you must prepare and present in groups
You recieve 2 days of technical training, case studies etc so you really learn alot
The Company
Grad recruitment were really organised
Subsidised Canteen
You may recieve a straight offer, interview or you can reapply for a summer internship
