The Role
A great deal. I had a tremendous time over the summer, learnt a lot and made long-lasting friendships.
A great deal. Feedback was provided very frequently and it was encouraged to ask for it. My team were very vocal when thanking me for my contributions, which felt great and spurred me on to try and do even better going forward.
We were given a lot of mentorship opportunities. These mentors were sometimes very senior and it is shocking how much time they dedicated to us interns to provide guidance. Everyone else was always willing to spare their time and advice.
Very busy throughout the summer! It was non-stop but the rush felt amazing. Days flew by.
Was put on several client calls and given direct client-facing work.
The skills I have developed will help me a lot in my studies when it comes to working with people, project management and professionalism.
The Company
Serious and focussed on the job at hand yet very open and not at all sterile.
HR did a fantastic job organizing us into respective teams. I don't think anyone was unhappy with their team placements. Countless senior networking opportunities as well as events with firmwide interns were organised.
A lot. 1 week of technical training was provided at the start, which everything covered being directly relevant for the internship. Also, support Excel sessions were organized throughout the internship and we were able to attend when we felt it necessary. In that sense we were fully equipped to focus on our internships and do our best.

It was a pipeline program and the conditions for performing well and being considered for the full-time program were explained very clearly.
The Culture
Yes, very. This was encouraged and people were very friendly.
London is pricey but it was in no way a burden.
Canary Wharf is not the area to go out but offers a wide range of restaurants and bars. The after-work social scene is well established.
A lot, interns made a great job to organize events / hang outs / dinners / nights out.
