What people say about this event

It made me look into finance. I was an international politics student, so it wasn’t something that I even had a tiny idea about, so it gave me a groundwork to work up on.

Internship Experience UK last summer gave me such a good insight into industry-leading companies and the workshops within this were very useful for thinking about the kinds of skills you want to showcase during the application process.
