About You
The insight was very interesting. I met a lot of people and learnt a lot of very useful things.
We had a number of senior managing directors come and talk to us while we there with plenty of time to ask them questions. They all seemed very genuine and willing to help us.
There was always someone available throughout the 3 days to answer your questions.
We had a few talks on agile development methodologies which has helped me in my System Requirements and Design module. As well the interview and assessment techniques will hopefully help me when I go on to apply for an internship during my placement year.
The Company
I thought the programme was well structured. There was a lot to take in but all very relevant.
I thoroughly enjoyed my insight. I met a lot of new people doing the same course at other universities which I hope to keep in contact with.
We had numerous training and skills development sessions through practical activities and talks.
We got the chance to shadow a full time employ within the company.
You could see and feel the culture while we were there, especially when we were allowed to wonder around the campus during our breaks.
There was a lot of information helping you to find a potential career path within J.P.Morgan.
Everything Else
We were very generously looked after in a very nice hotel.
Plenty, multiple times a day.
Very enjoyable. There were a lot of people to talk to from a lot of different areas throughout the company.
Yes we had a whole presentation on the extra activities an employee can do, there were a lot!
Yes, I learnt a lot and really enjoyed it.
