Summer Internship Advice - Help/Input Appreciated
Hey guys, I'm a freshman in college and have an offer for an unpaid equity research summer internship position in Shanghai for a firm called UOB Kay Hian. Was wondering if anyone knew about this firm and whether or not it's reputable. Also, would this position be worth not receiving pay for an entire summer, or would I just be better off enjoying the summer or finding a different paid position like PWM?
Here's their website: http://www.uobkayhian.com/
They're reputable, although I doubt that they have very large operations in Shanghai. UOB Kay Hian is the brokerage/research arm of UOB, which is one of Singapore's big 3 banks.
For a freshman-year internship, I think it's a pretty good opportunity. Will definitely set you up well to land a BB ER/IBD internship for next summer.
just curious how did you get this position? They are a top brokerage firm in Singapore. def reputable
Anything for freshman yr summer> nothing. Quasi-high finance > corporate general gig abroad xp. > Staying in local town (assuming you live in one of the many small towns in America) Also just from a human standpoint, what an opportunity. You may never get to do something like this in your life again. Go explore, enjoy and learn. I doubt you'll have AS MANY opp.s to go check out Shanghai and work at a respectable firm for 3 months as a "test". GL
