The Role
Dream job. I am going to work hard to get a contract.
I had a chance to meet people from graduates to top management people. All of them were nice, polite and taught me a lot of things that I didn't actually realize before.
Since there was a challenge during the challenge, we were given very little guidance to have a feel of how a real project is like and try to figure it out ourselves. It was amazing experience.
A lot of seminars, talks, networking events, shadowing.
There were a lot of responsibility, however the interns must be able to cope with it.
Everything I learned during the internship helped me a lot and gave a push to develop y skills further.
The Company
Everyone is relaxed and not stressed. However everyone was very efficient and organized, and had everything done in very little time.
All the activities were carefully thought through and well-planned.
I actually felt that the firm cared for me as if I was an employee.
Company Parties/Events
I would really like to get a job with J.P.Morgan and I am not going to apply to anywhere else to try to focus on developing my skills especially for the company.
The Culture
On the second day we already knew each other and had no problems communicating with each other.
Center of London, though the company pays enough to afford it.
The Nightlife was available though I'm not really into it.
Almost endless opportunities.
