The Role
Great so far, learned really 10 times more than everything studied in Finance this year
Feeling like a part of the team, people are interested in new colleagues, ask questions and wants to know you more
Daily basis Everyone knows we are here for a hosrt period of time and know how valuable is their help and guidance They give you project but want you to really get a deep understanding of what you are doing
quiet busy but not more than my colleagues, same as the desk never bored, perfect balance
Good responsibility when it comes to projects, they give you the problematic and you come up with a huge spreadsheet and they cannot check everything. It is my responsibility to double check every results and be clear on what I have done so they know every steps I have followed.
Personal skills, Networking skills, Daily job skills
The Company
