As part of our International Women’s Day celebrations, we hosted the Insights into Independents at the Jefferies office in London. The day was filled with valuable career insights into working at independent banks, achieving work-life balance, the importance of networking, navigating the industry by understanding various roles and mastering the application process. We extend our gratitude to Aditi Venkatram for opening the Insights event with inspiring and motivating insights into her career journey and the banking industry. Our panellists - Fran Tew, Charlotte Edgar, Becky Heard, Xue Xian Lee, Cristina Forcina Westermann, Alexandra Loth, Sophia Rodriguez, Megan Gresham and Annemijn Bijlsma - fuelled students' ambition by sharing examples of breaking stereotypes. Additionally, they conducted interactive activities to debunk some common banking myths and provided solutions to real-life work-related problems and case studies. Thank you to Janet Harbison, for concluding the event with top tips and valuable insights into the technical knowledge of the banking industry. A massive thank you to Jefferies for supporting us in hosting Insights into Independents at their London office once again. We also thank the firms that joined the networking session: Lazard, Houlihan Lokey, PJT Partners ,Ardea Partners, Moelis & Company and Rothschild & Co.
