Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Majority of the internship is shadowing. Depending on what desk your at, you shadow and network with the people there. On the credit s&t desk, we did trade pitches (1-2 a week). You are encouraged to leave your desk and chat with different people.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
No, no responsibility. Interns are not allowed to communicate with clients and I was learning more than I was actually working.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Deutsche Bank
Networking is the most important thing- I didn't do spring week but I highly recommend. Try to stand out but also be yourself. Show them what is different about you.
