My overall experience was great!

My experience with Capital Placement was very smooth and easy going, what I valued the most was the effort the team put in to find me an internship that is tailored to my preferences and interest. Usually using such a service you would expect to yield results, but not the results that you would get if you ventured out on your own. However, with Capital Placement I was able to get in-touch with companies that would normally be out of my scope and reach. I would recommend this service because the team does not consider this a business, you are not just another paying customer, the team takes the time to understand the type of workplace that suits you and strives to ensure that you find the most suitable internship.

Everything has been fast, very easy and effective.

10 out 10. Since my initial call everything has been fast, very easy and effective. I got matched with a startup in the legal-tech sector that has everything I was looking for. One of my concerns when considering a remote internship was how much will I actually learn since I wasn't going be there physically interacting with my new colleagues. But the whole remote thing hasn't been a problem at all, my colleagues are amazing and in these few weeks I have learned so much.This great match was definitely posible because the Capital Placement team took time in that initial interview to get to know my background, what I was looking for in an internship and my long term goals. Overall my whole experience has been very pleasant and the Capital Placement team has always been there to make sure that doesn't change.

What would you improve about this program?
Nothing. The whole process was very efficient.

Overall this remote internship experience has equipped me with useful skills.

Overall this remote internship experience has equipped me with useful skills. While this internship was not in my primary area of interest, I have come to develop a liking towards this field. A big shoutout to Vinay for explaining things to me frankly. The whole team at Capital Placement genuinely cares and are always ready to help when needed. I am glad I took this opportunity to further my professional skills and I'm looking forward to experiencing the wide range of possibilities this remote internship has made available for me.

What would you improve about this program?
The process was really smooth and there was good communication between me and the staff so I think it was as good as it could be.

The team at Capital Placement are fabulous

The team at Capital Placement are fabulous. Always quick to respond to my emails, their customer service is outstanding. Not only do they find the right fit for you, but they are honest with you if you need to improve your skills in areas to match the industry so that you can intern and grow successfully. From editing documents to researching competitor financials, I am always kept busy and in the loop of activities "on the ground". Interning remotely has been amazing & fun, I would recommend that anyone wants to add to their experience take part!

What would you improve about this program?
Nothing. I have no complaints. You guys gave me the perfect company and always answer all questions I have.

What is your favorite travel memory?

Going to Kuta, Bali, in 2017 with 3 of my closest friends, and experiencing some of the best nightlife I have ever come across. On the day of visiting the biggest waterpark, we were unaware that a volcano had erupted. Due to the eruption, we were stranded and unable to fly home. We had largely run out of funds and had to pool our money together to last a couple days. Frightening at the time, but unforgettable.

How have you changed/grown since working for your current company?

Absolutely. I had no idea about management consulting before I started working. My task and time management needed a lot of attention and improvement. I have learned to delegate my tasks a bit better, and developed my professional communication skills. I have definitely figured out what I enjoy and what I don't enjoy as much.

What is the best story you've heard from a return student?

We had an international student on a visa in the UK who faced rejections from many multinational firms several times. Her status as an “international student” made it difficult to secure a full time offer at any firm. After interning with one of our partners, she landed two roles! She was hired on a full-time basis at a London based financial services advisory firm, AND started a part-time remote internship at a New-York based alternative asset management firm.

If you could go on any program that your company offers, which one would you choose and why?

The International Internship Program. It is such a phenomenal way to safely go over to another country and experience the professional culture, as well as the social culture, whilst gain valuable experience and developing a professional skill set. It is so well-organised and designed for the intern's benefit! The support is all there.

What makes your company unique? When were you especially proud of your team?

I am proud of my team everyday. They are willing to go out of their way and above and beyond to help passionate individuals achieve their goals. They have also created an atmosphere within the company where everyone is equal and plays equally vital roles in the company's success. No one is more important than the other. The collaborative nature in the company is tangible.

What do you believe to be the biggest factor in being a successful company?

Collaboration. I love how the company I work for pays as much attention to their clients' success as their own team's success. So much effort is put into making sure that everyone is communicating and working together - if anyone is ever dissatisfied, it is almost solved right away. I feel that a company is only truly successful outside once it is successful inside.
