    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • Really informative with the inclusion of fun activities. Long hours but the work done was exciting and seemed realistic.

    4/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • Everyone spoken to was very friendly, warm and receptive to questions. Responsive to emails and didn't make us feel stupid.

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • Recruiters were very helpful and information provided through a booklet was thorough and useful.

    5/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • Can't really answer this at this point in time but seems as though they'll be very useful.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • Very good. Included lots of useful sessions, not just banking specific ones.

    5/5

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?
  • Great people. Not just work, included fun networking sessions and Quiz's for instance.

    5/5

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • Very well structured meant that we got training in lots of different areas. Nothing too technical though. Don't think that the lack of technical 'stuff' learnt could be expected in a week though.

    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?
  • Hard to say, didn't really do too much technical stuff, was more of an introduction to the bank and investment banking in general.

    3/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • Simply very helpful. Evident through the people and was often touched upon through questions.

    5/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • Got a taste of their working life, though less hours.

    5/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?
  • Haven't been reimbursed yet. Though actually because I was from London I didn't qualify for accommodation which meant that I had over an hour daily commute which extended my day significantly.


  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?
  • Lots of. Not overly well structured though.

    4/5

  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?
  • Too crowded. Often 10 interns to one employee meant that one couldn't really connect or ask specific questions.

    4/5

  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
  • Not really. Little bit but what we did find out were mainly work-related committees, nothing about sport teams or the like.

    3/5

  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?
  • Simply yes.

    5/5
