The Role
My colleagues were very friendly and helpful.
They always kept me busy. If I did have some free time I would tell them and they would find work that I could help out on.
A lot of my tasks were my own responsibility and unless I needed help I was allowed to get on with them.
I learnt a lot about the investment management industry and the opportunities available. In addition marketing required knowledge about the products, customers and competitors and required good business sense as well so I learnt a lot of general business skills as well.
The Company

The Culture
They do not have many interns although the employees on the graduate programme were very friendly.
