Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
Enjoyed a fantastic insight week, gained knowledge on Fidelity International’s values and how they work. Was especially pleased with how they went into detail with each company sector from learning about equity research to sales and marketing. Rounded the experience off with a presentation challenge, a fantastic experience and a key way to make my presence memorable to Fidelity International’s higher ups - fantastic.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
A lot of information delivered in a short time, the information was fantastic but I would have preferred to have another day, so that the information could be spread across two days instead of one.
