It was a good insight to how the bank worked but also how important fit is. Learnt a great deal.

Depends on the desk, general feeling is that Equities view you as more junior but doesn't necessarily mean you feel less valued.

Again, depends on the desk and who you get as your line manager. Most are very nice though.

Again, depends on the desk and whether they have a lot of simple stuff to churn through or if your line manager sets you a difficult task. Some days were very long, others significantly shorter in terms of hours in the office, but the busier days go by faster.

Unlikely to get a lot of responsibility without passing FSAs. Line managers can give you a certain amount of work but nothing significant in the grand scheme of things.

Learnt a lot about myself from feedback - always ask for it!

Depends on the desk and how busy they are.

Not bad, would've preferred to have more organised intern drinks as it meant that after the first week, bumping into friends in other departments (IBD, Finance, Ops, IT etc) was pretty rare. Also, seemed like HR was closer to Equities as they received info before FICC but info generally reached everyone in good time.

Some desks have more time to invest in you than others; presentations at the start were pretty standard, it really does depend on the desk though.

Not sure, banking sector is reeling back as a whole, will be hearing hiring decision next week.

Interns are friendly and a good laugh but as I've mentioned before, there weren't many opportunities to meet other parts of the bank. Drinks at the local bars were popular (the Fleetwood, esp Fridays).

Expensive, as expected, but we're also earning a fair amount.

Alright, didn't go out much, preferred bars.

There are lots of opportunities to do voluntary work but it depends on how much free time you have (which isn't much).
