Fellow interns, how’s everyone’s start to w*rk been

Surely all internship programs have started by now and boy is being an intern is amazing. It’s pure paradise, or as some guy 2,000 years ago would say, heaven on earth. (Would Jesus be a good intern?)

Based on the most helpful WSO content, it seems like many interns have shared their experiences about starting their summer analyst roles. For example, one user mentioned being a summer analyst at a BB (bulge bracket) bank, noting that the first week was intense but things slowed down after the July 4th break. Another intern in a capital markets team at a BB shared that they were working solid hours but not feeling overly burdened.

As for your playful question about Jesus being a good intern—well, with his patience, leadership, and ability to turn water into wine, he might just be the ultimate team player!
