Corporate Analyst Intern

June - August 2018 • Chicago, IL

What I liked

My internship with the Corporate Analyst Development Program was very structured and I was able to work on a project that added direct value to the team I worked on.

What I wish was different

The scope of the internship was very back office and operational and the project managers weren’t very helpful if you found that wasn’t what you wanted to do.

Advice

Be sure that you’re 100% wanting to do something more back office and not client facing before you accept this role.

Analyst

May - August 2018 • New York City, NY

What I liked

Good training and structure--never left with nothing to do at work. Also lots of support for female advancement at JP Morgan.

What I wish was different

Better hours. Most days it was difficult to have a second to breathe, let alone maintain my training/sleeping schedule for cross country.

Advice

Build a network of people who you can go to for advice because if something comes up later in the internship, the more friendships and connections you have, the better equipped you will be to deal with those issues or concerns.

Corporate Analyst

June - August 2019 • Newark, DE

What I liked

This was a wonderful internship. It was through JPMorgan Chase & Co Corporate Analyst Development Program, which offered a structured path throughout the summer in the form of networking events, recruiter check-ins, mentorship, in addition to plenty of communication and ways to be involved in the company. Everyone who I met over the summer was helpful and really wanted me to feel my best at the company. My manager and team wanted me to succeed and were extremely helpful, which I appreciated.

What I wish was different

Advice

This is a very rigorous internship. The work you are doing during the summer is not busy work and, depending on your team, you will be involved in a lot of team meetings, events, and projects. Be prepared, but it is so rewarding at the end of the day!

Analyst (Investment Banking)

June - August 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I really liked how much hands on experience we were given as interns -- during my summer, I worked on major deals that ended up hitting the front page of the Wall Street Journal. It was a great resume building experience!

What I wish was different

I wish that my team had more on-boarding activities for interns. For the first part of the internship we had to integrate with the team ourselves which I found a bit difficult.

Advice

The 8 weeks of the internship are a sprint -- give it your all (especially at the very beginning) and you will be rewarded with more experience and the ability to work on more complex things.

Summer Analyst

June - August 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I loved the friendly faces on my floor and the great analyst to manager match for each intern. I also had great opportunities to have certain ownership over projects that directly impact the leadership team and clients! It was a great experience to help me transition from college to work seamlessly and the experience opened my eyes to a new lifestyle I knew JPMC would help me tackle.

What I wish was different

At first, I wished there was more guidance from the leaders around me. However, this taught me to reach out to learn more than what was given to me with proper time management. I taught myself how to learn the most by asking questions and connecting the dots to different functions of the workplace. It was a great experience to learn on my own than being spoon-fed all the details to each project I took part in.

Advice

One piece of advice would be to learn as much as possible by making lasting impressions and relationships! You will never crack past the surface if you ask the same questions to the same people, but by making mentors and friends who want to learn from you as you can from them. Unexpected news may also come out of no where, so always keep your brand in mind and work hard!

June - August 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I enjoyed my team's willingness to help and provide insight, the company location in NYC, the clients I worked for, and the pay.

What I wish was different

I wish I had been provided a bit more autonomy on certain tasks. Also, the nature of the work requires many hours per week, which I wish could have been a bit less.
