“Wellington is one of the top asset management firms in the world with more than 1 trillion US dollar asset under management.
I felt that the whole internship was similar to a test of my ability to conduct work as a full time investment associate.
Through this internship, I confirmed that I love this job and I want to pursue a career here.
“I undertook a two-month internship as an Equity Research Intern at JBA Capital, a small-size hedge fund based in Taiwan.
During the two-month internship, I had completed eight equity reports in total.
I feel that during the internship, I was treated like a regular employee in JBA.
The internship enables me to assure my interest towards the equity market and finds lots of aspects that really attract me.
Thanks a lot to JBA, though it is a small company, I gained a lot of practical experience, formed close relationship with the company and be more certain about the future career that I would like to develop.
Majoring in GLEF leads me to learn a great deal about how money works, and about financial instruments, stocks, bonds, markets, how macroeconomics and microeconomics work.
4 years in GLEF has been an exceptional journey beyond my imagination.
One of the most things that I admired is that GLEF does not aim to train students to merely expertise in finance yet upon that, to equip students to have the ability to think logically and critically independently.
“Last summer, I worked in Citibank as a global consumer banking (GCB) summer analyst for 10 weeks.
It kicked off with a 1.5-day orientation with over 100 interns across different divisions.
I joined the customer acquisition team under the Segment department of GCB division.
What was notable was that Citi organized different workshops for interns to interact with senior management teams and also the head of consumer banking, Mr.
I believe an internship is a golden opportunity for students to tap into the real business world to gain first-hand experience of a particular company as well as the nature of the industry.
On the whole, I am very positive towards the GLEF program.
All in all, I believe the support given to students in this program is enough to help students academically and with their future career development.”
“I did not know about AlphaSights, or even about the existence of the industry prior to my job search.
AlphaSights is an information services company that connects experts known as advisors with its clients on specific topics.
The first week of the internship was called “AlphaCamp”.
After the week of AlphaCamp, mock calls and CP test I got onto the desk where I was assigned a trainer and a manager on a specific team.
AlphaSights has a heavy emphasis on monitoring the professional development of their associates.
Overall, I had a fruitful experience at AlphaSights and most of my tasks involved connecting clients with the appropriate expert for 1-hour phone interactions.
There were a couple of opportunities where I had the chance to conduct presentations regarding weekly team performance statistics, future targets and any interesting findings I had to share.
Furthermore, with GLEF being a small course, I had access to having several meetings with Prof.
“In the summer of 2019, I took part in a memorable and fruitful 10 weeks internship program in Point72, an asset management company.
I worked as an operation intern with a team of 4.
During my internship period, besides the daily routine work and ad-hoc tasks, I also carried out a project related to Corporate Actions.
Apart from work, I enjoyed a variety of activities organized by the HR team and developed a strong bonding with interns from different departments.
The most fulfilling part as an operation intern is that when you are able to understand the full picture, you would be able to realize every step you take and every button you press makes a difference.
The internship journey changed my working attitude.
I am thankful that GLEF provides us with the resources conducive to securing the offer for Point72.
Without help from GLEF the program, I would not be able to get the offer from Point72 and enjoyed a fruitful journey.”
