Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the virtual experience and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The day was 9 - 5:30 and involved several presentations from different lines of business, at least one case study activity per day (discussion and/or short presentation) and a number of networking sessions with employees from analysts to managing directors.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Very detailed insights into each line of business and plenty of opportunities to ask questions. Also provided information about many of the potential internships and how to approach the application process.

Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy the virtual experience?
Naturally, I wish that the experience had been in person, but given the circumstances, the programme was well structured and we were still able to learn a lot. It is often difficult to listen to hours of presentations as companies attempt to sell themselves but there were plenty of breaks and ample opportunities to work in groups as well as network with anyone we met.
