Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I had the chance to realize various tasks: From putting together teasers to long-term projects that involved creating a standardized FactSet driven pre-IFRS 16 long term trading over the cycle excel file.
I really enjoyed working at Rothschild. I was challenged a lot and every task was a learning experience.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was. They would assess how you are preforming with simple tasks at first and then give you more and more responsibility as time goes by.

- I became more sociable in a working environment (asking for coffee chats, participating in work events...)

Company Culture
What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
The hierarchy is flat and the atmosphere is very laid back. It is so easy to feel part of the team because people are very welcoming and nice.
As it is a very busy team, it's a "work hard play hard" kind of culture

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Rothschild & Co to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Rothschild & Co
I would advice them to go up to people and ask them for coffee chats, so they can learn more about the company and the culture.
Generally, it is very important to identify to the culture and see whether the person will be comfortable working for a certain company.
