The Role
Great team, great senior colleague exposure, comprehensive deal insight and got experience from a wide variety of assignments.
Very performance oriented but supportive, friendly and keen for interns evolvement and experience in general.
If I needed help I could just turn my head to either my VP or analyst colleague sitting next to me
I was very busy, but that provided me the chance to prove myself as well as get alot out of the internship
I was given alot more responsibility than I had expected and that was very exciting and horrifying at the same time
My degree studies don't have much in common with the work I did
The Company
Very serious but also very relaxed and fun when time of less stress came along
No problems at all
Alot I would say - the team and HR are very keen to develop "ready to go" analysts
Subsidised/Company Gym
Company Parties/Events
The firm do not have the internship program for the fun of it, they employed a very big part of the internship class
The Culture
I had so much fun with fellow interns, both in the office for example while enjoying dinner - as well as outside the office
The nightlife in London is awesome, but it's not like the office is very close to the good clubs
