Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
There were daily insightful talks about the different divisions of Rothschild&Co with junior and senior bankers who gave an insight into what they are doing in general and on a daily basis with lots of room for Q&A. Furthermore, you worked on a case study about an M&A deal and attended networking sessions.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
The team at Rothschild&Co did an amazing job at informing and preparing us for future roles at Rothschild&Co. The numerous talks really helped to understand the different divisions, their differences and how they work and what they do on a daily basis. You definitely gain a holistic business overview!
