Question about laptop requirement for investment banking

Hi,

I wonder if I will be offered a work laptop or phone for my investment banking summer internship. Currently using a MacBook with Windows installed, can I still use my personal laptop? Or will I be mandated to get a new one?

You'll get a work laptop, phone depends on the firm. Also you should absolutely never use your personal laptop for anything work related or send something from your work laptop to your personal one
