    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • JP Morgan Technologies offer a huge variety of roles and responsibilities to take on, which brings down to the fact that every student can find a project of his liking to take on.

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • The colleagues were extremely friendly and allowed me to immerse into the group environment very quickly. And also, they were very helpful to teach me, and were also interested in learning from my skill set.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • The manager was extremely helpful, even though I was not placed in a position that I applied to, he adjusted my projects to be more interesting to me and also provided me with other opportunities to join projects in other teams' projects and also shadow their work.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • As an intern you have so many opportunities, it is a shame not to use them and learn about the company, or gain some more skills. Therefore, I took a lot of responsibilities to handle, thus making me very busy during the day.

    5/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • I was given as much responsibility as my other team members and even more, I wasn't restricted to 'intern-only' projects and had a perfect experience of the teams' work, gaining full access to do the job without having to consult with someone on every step.

    5/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • The skills gained will help me work more efficiently within a team, and also allow me to share my knowledge with my university friends.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • The atmosphere was very good, and everyone greeted me with a smile and questions if I need any help with something, or how my work is going.

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • The organization of the internship could be reconsidered. It took a few days for us to set up/gain access to our workstations. The access levels were not given to us, thus took a while to get the access needed within the team.

    2/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • The firm offers a large variety of training tutorials which can be attended by anyone, no matter your line of business.

    4/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • Company Parties/Events
    4/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • If I get the offer to work as a full time analyst after my internship, I will definitely consider joining JPMC, as the programme they offer is extremely interesting and allows a wide spread of skills to be gained.

    4/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • The participation between interns was excellent, from out of business activities, to activities, knowledge shares within the company.

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • The cost of living is fairly expensive and JPMC could provide better guidance about where to stay over during the internship, apart from one halls complex, where most of us stayed, however it was an expensive rent.

    3/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • The nighlife quality was not too good, the clubs aren't good, however it is always full of people there.

    3/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Yes, there has been a number of activities outside of work, and it was well communicated to everyone.
