Hello Freshers!
Firstly many congrats and welcome to Warwick!
We have been working very hard over the summer in order to create
a jam-packed, exciting event schedule to ensure you have the best
possible support to secure your dream internship.
The Spring Week Guide contains top tips, an application guide and
the WBF Events Calendar for Term 1. We are proud to announce our
Flagship Events for this year including Introduction to Spring Weeks,
Meet the City (day trip to London visiting offices of Blackrock,
Morgan Stanley and others) and Meet the Senior Leaders in Finance
(senior Reps from Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Blackrock and
others will be attending)
The WBF Exec Team looks forward to meeting many of you shortly.
Feel free to pop us an email if you have any questions, we are more
than happy to help.
Best of luck!
