Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
As an investment banking intern, I was tasked with creating slides for pitchbooks, a live deal, as well as an actual financial model (DCF) for a pitchbook. I am very grateful to have had this level of exposure during my internship, since I am certain this would have not been the case at any other firm, considering the short time period.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Worked on a live deal, built a model for a pitchbook, created slides for a cross-border transaction - safe to say I had tons of exposure.
