Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the virtual experience and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
We listened to presentations from the Global Advisory, Equity Advisory and Debt Advisory divisions. We also had to complete a group project in which we give an M&A recommendation. Each group got assigned their own pair of companies. We also had coffee chat sessions with current analysts.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Mostly interactive presentations from the different teams.

Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy the virtual experience?
I really enjoyed the global advisory case study and I wish they did more of them during the week from different teams. I definitely learned more from that one session than from doing my own group project for the week, as in how an M&A banker would actually evaluate the multiple complex aspects of a deal. I also enjoyed the Rothschild archives session.
Please rate your level of enjoyment on the virtual experience
