Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I worked as a Capital Markets intern within a national team for a specific asset class. On a daily basis I would attend several meetings (client meetings, bidding meetings, team meetings, networking); produce client materials (brochures, maps); and create materials to assist JLL (proformas, residual valuations via Excel and Argus). Alongside working for my team, I also had to work on a group project with the other interns.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, in the sense that I created lots of client materials that were distributed to agents and clients, I also generated lots of materials for JLL that were routinely used. Additionally, I spoke many agents for comparables and sat in on meetings. However, I rarely attended in person inspections/ meetings.

Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
Both.
The majority of new skills I have learnt are associated with applications e.g. use of Edozo, Argus Developer, Excel. Yet, I also learnt how to negotiate and communicate with other agents for industry specific information.

Support and Guidance
How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
The support and guidance was very good. HR carried out several talks, social events and training activities throughout the internship. I also had an assigned buddy to talk to outside of my team- this was very useful for introductions across different departments and for general questions, putting you at ease.
