    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • Everything was scheduled and went according to plan. Leaving a couple of no-shows due to last minute circumstances and the busy nature of investment banking aside, everything was set up perfectly.

    5/5
  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    • The people in this programme are really smart and welcoming. You don't have an aggressive culture, teamwork is essential to getting the most out of the experience.

    4/5
  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • 6 hours+ of travel, accommodation, meals. Not much more left there for discretionary spending, really.

    5/5
  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?

    • The only thing that was missing was job shadowing.

    4/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

    • Travel, stay, extra stay, and meals all paid for.

  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?

    • Everyday.

    5/5
  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?

    • Sometimes the intern/employee ratio wasn't the best but overall really good. Just by sheer volume you were bound to network successfully.

    4/5
  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?

    • We heard a mention of clubs/activities but not in detail.

    2/5
  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?

    • They need to be willing to put in the time to be an Investment banker and have the organisational skills.

    4/5
