I participated the past 2 years. My school sent an email when applications opened during the winter. It’s a few weeks over the summer but it’s pretty basic resume/interviewing tips. You do learn about the different divisions though.

The best way I can explain it is this: Imagine a summer analyst program and an insight day had a baby and 70% of the baby's genetics came from the insight day (the remainder obviously from the summer analyst program that piped out the insight day). I don't think there was a certificate though, no. Just read your other comment below and I'm not totally sure but I get the vibe you don't have much to include on the resume. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I was in the same spot about a year ago (which is why I applied). I was networking like a psycho through the winter and spring and landed a summer gig shortly after accepting the GS invite. So my internship took priority and I rarely went to any of the events. There was like a peer review day for resumes and I didn't realize that until after it had already occurred -- always felt bad about that... sorry, kid I fucked over!

But at the end of the day, yes it is definitely better than nothing. It's relevant. 

 

I just started my first year and I have tried to find interns for my first summer but all of them require me to be a second year student or more. The only way to find an internship is networking. I do have stuff to put in my CV, as I have 2 experiences in a Big data company and I manage the Uni's Finance Club. But still, I would at least go to the sessions where they explain the CV thing. A guy that works at GS said to me that he took this and networked with current GS analyst and assoxiates. Which helped him
