AM at BB vs an AM-only company (Fidelity, PIMCO, etc.)

Hi Guys,

I'm looking at AM internships in London.
I've noticed AM divisions in BB only offer 1 general role of: analyst intern, whereas investment management companies such as Fidelity offer various streams: research, investment management, sales&marketing.

Can anyone elaborate on what it's like as a recent grad working for an AM division at BB?

Asset Management Mock Interview

“This mentor provided valuable and constructive feedback that helped me better understand how to approach interviews and identify areas for improvement. I learned how to structure my responses more effectively, communicate my strengths with greater confidence, and stop downplaying my experiences and accomplishments. The session also helped me recognize which technical topics and industry-specific questions I need to research further, allowing me to prepare more strategically for future interviews.”

Asset Management Mock Interview

“John was so personable and willing to help me prep for my opportunistic investing interview! I felt completely comfortable asking questions and he also asked me great interview questions to help me think about my responses to the interview I was prepping for. He also responded to my initial Slack ask super quickly!”
