Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
Received insights into the front-office divisions at JPMorgan.
Monday-Asset and Wealth Management
Tuesday-Markets+Other front-office divisions
Wednesday-IBD+Career Fair
Each day involved listening to interactive presentations, case studies and networking sessions.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Initially, I never knew about the other front-office divisions such as Securities and Market Risk.
So, it was great to finally learn about all these other areas.
Since we all got to learn about the different front-office divisions, we could then differentiate between the areas we were most interested in.
