    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • The insight programme was great! Very relevant training and valuable insights. The people who attended were from all kinds of educational and ethnic backgrounds.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • Everything was paid for, and we got time to network and interact with employees. As this was an insight programme with 50 Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµs, it felt like the whole group was catered to, rather than an individual. However, I believe that it was a good thing, as none of us had any prior relationship to the firm.

    4/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • Clear schedule and great training provided!

    5/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • As the training provided was very relevant to the financial industry, I believe that it will be very valuable for possible interviews and the tasks that I would face in a banking job.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • Great structure! It was filled with presentations, networking etc. As this was a programme for non-finance backgrounds, J.P. Morgan made sure that we got a good view of what a finance job means.

    5/5

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?
  • From the firm's side, everything was great. They were very friendly and made sure that we had everything we needed and were satisfied.

    5/5

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • We received a subscription to a financial newspaper and will be provided further training during summer.

    4/5

  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?
  • I got to see some divisions that I didn't know much about prior to the week. Valuable job-shadowing as well, with a very friendly representative from my region.

    4/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • Everyone talked a lot about the company culture. I got the impression that people tend to stay longer at this firm than other firms in the business.

    4/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • I'm quite sure that I want to pursue a career in banking after this week.

    5/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?
  • No pay, but expenses for travel and housing was reimbursed. I didn't have to pay anything up front to be reimbursed at a later date, instead they helped us set everything up before the programme.


  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?
  • Yes! We also got to network with senior executives, as well as more junior employees.

    5/5

  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?
  • Nice, most people were very friendly. Some didn't seem as interested in networking with us, but I guess that networking events don't suit everyone.

    4/5

  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
  • When I asked employees, I got answers. No activities mentioned during presentations etc. However, I find this question to be irrelevant, as activities outside of work isn't part of a job but rather a private matter.

    5/5

  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?
  • Absolutely! Great experience.

    5/5
