Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Nomura to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Nomura
Research the roles available at an investment bank, and try to understand what is involved in the day-to-day roles. Each job varies a lot so it's best to research this before hand/ explore during the internship. Having a general understanding of finance is helpful before starting.
