Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Helping the team out in preparing pitches, and live deal content for clients. This means joining internal and external calls with clients to prepare these materials. We also were given a final project to do on a company with an overview and valuation.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, we were given a broad exposure to live deals. I was given real responsibility after an initial stage of gaining trust, but throughout the rest of the internship had great exposure.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
