Summer investment Analyst

June - August 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

Great program and excellent mentoring by the analysts above me. Also, being able to speak about my experiences acted as a good launching off point for recruiting this year.

What I wish was different

Nothing. Great experience.

Advice

Try not to be intimidated by a new environment or feeling like your internship is out of your “league”. At the end of the day the people you’re working with are regular people who have insecurities about their job performance and are awkward sometimes too.

Portfolio Analysis Intern

June - August 2019 • Newark, NJ

What I liked

The company culture and employees were all amazing. I never had a negative experience and looked forward to every single day. My manager was the VP of Risk Management in PGIM Fixed Income and assigned me a database project for the summer, and would teach me the business intermittently and was very open to my questions.

What I wish was different

Nothing at all.

Advice

Ask as many questions as you need, but of course be aware that everyone has priorities and to be considerate of everyone's time. Use your judgement and learn as much as possible.
