Big thanks must be given to my supervisor and colleagues for their guidance during my internship and to the GLEF program for the preparation and support!’

Leo Lee – Wave Insight

‘In the summer break of year three, I joined Wave Insight Limited, a start-up which works on financial online platform and investment, for 3 months.
During the internship, I was assigned to the Investment & Research Department.
Not only did the 3-month internship experience deepen my knowledge in the finance industry, strengthen my research, analysis skills and interpersonal skills, but more importantly, it also gave me a new path for career planning. 

Although working in start-up may not be a desirable option for many of us, the lessons learnt from it should never be downplayed.
It would be a shame that I did not get enough tine working with my colleagues in the office as my company adopted “Work-from-home” mode during the pandemic.
I would like to credit to GLEF Program for setting up a good study scheme which equipped me with fundamental knowledge that helped me excel the tasks.
