The interns were divided into several teams to perform tasks of different types and sizes together. Moreover, there were over ten different awards for them to compete with each other. Such arrangement enabled them to experience the spirit of team work through project completion and to bring out their potentials in order to win the awards.

In addition, experts also shared their valuable experience and skills in practical application of such basic knowledge. By such arrangement, the program takes care of both theory and practical skills. Furthermore, interns were given chances to participate planning and delivering different marketing projects. Through such practices, they understand the operation of different departments more in a financial institution.

Riding on the solid ground of previous internship programs, several new elements have been added in this year’s summer internship program. Interns are involved in the planning and organization of large-scale investment seminar, visited a variety of financial institutions and attended fund talks, helped to produce video films for mobile APPS programs, shared career development experience with different department managers, etc. Such new elements provided them with insights in more diversified aspects. Moreover, they were invited for a trip to the BWC Financial Education Center in Nanhai. Local Government officials have specially explained to them about the development layout of the Nanhai High-tech Economic Zone. This valuable chance has broadened the horizon of the interns to a macro level.

After this intern program, I have benefitted a lot in various areas. First, the morning briefing session everyday is the part that I find most inspiring with. With the detailed and easy-to-understand presentations by Michael and Tony, I have developed much higher interest in analyzing the effects of news to financial markets.Also, the opportunities for me to interact with different department heads due to the marketing task are precious to me. Throughout the interview, they are willing to share the prospects of the related industry as well as the career path of themselves. These all help me to make better decision of my future career path.”
