Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The insight was a 4 week global advisory spring week, in which students had the possibility to attend panels from Rothschild bankers, ask questions, attend work shadowing lessons and network with employees. Students were also given the task to carry out a group project regarding 2 companies m&A opportunities.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was truly insightful to gain further insights on the role present within an investment bank, together with the roles that differentiate Rothschild from other financial institutions. I had the possibility to understand actually what junior and senior bankers do on a. day-to-day basis.

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
I have encountered one of the best culture I have seen in a bank at Rothschild. During the panels, students could really tell the passions that the bankers had for their jobs and analyst were always available to help us and answer our questions were needed. For Rothschild people are at the core of the business and the insight week truly depicted such reality of trust and cooperation.
