The experience in JP Morgan has provided a valuable opportunity to connect with employees working there. Over the 10 weeks, it allowed you to understand JP Morgan Business as a whole and a better idea of the roles you would want to work for after graduation. I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it tremendously useful.

They provide pre-internship online training to give you a brief overview of the finance sector which is useful even though I studied Economics in university. During the internship, there are many training course available and everyone are eager to help. I get assigned a buddy in completely different dept and a senior mentor in the same dept. They are very friendly and helpful.

The real life exposure to banking industry allow me to gain insights in industry demand. I know what and how to equip myself to be more competitive for the industry during my last year of university study. This internship definitely benefit my personal development in handling interpersonal relationship, technological skills, and commercial knowledge.

The Bournemouth office is a lot more relaxed than the London office. However, everyone I have met are friendly, helpful, and kind. They are very willing to give you support, guidance and overview into their work. There are endless possibility to add value and learn. It all depends on how much you are willing to involve in.

I enjoy working with the people there and if I get offered a place, I will be more than happy to take it. The career progression here is similar to other banks and the benefit and pay here is competitively attractive. As being such a huge global company, the opportunity is endless and I think it is a great place to work in.

Through talking to people, you understand a lot about the company culture and work ethic. When it comes to project collaboration, the way people handle challenges and the standard of output tells you how good they are. There was an speaker session given by the CEO and numerous senior networking session that allow you to understand their culture, career progression.

In JP Morgan, it is up to you to make the most out of your time in internship. I organise at least one overviews weekly and actively involved in societies to play sport. Towards the end of internship, I even organise a work shadowing trip to London office with another interns and get a broader understanding of JP Morgan business.

Again the opportunities are endless and it depends on how involved you are. The interns always hang out during weekends for food, drinks or day trip to nearby natural scenery. There are also numerous team events and corporate group events happening all the time. There are many corporate sports group after work.

Yes. Working in Bournemouth is definitely cheaper than London in terms of rent. But the other cost of living (like grocery, social expenses, transport) I think the cost is similar if not the same. However the pay here is expected to be lower than London salary. As being a town, the beach and the relax environment in Bournemouth is definitely an advantage.
