During the summer, I mostly did desktop ESG research on more than 15 companies. It is a valuable experience to apply all academic knowledge to practical field and also learn a lot of new stuff. I really appreciate the friendliness of every colleague, and everyone is super responsive.
What I wish was different
Most of my work was on the engagement side. If possible, I wish I could have more experience on the research side. However, due to time constraint, it is also a great experience that I got deep in one specific engagement area.
Advice
I would recommend students with certain ESG knowledge to apply for the position. Also, it is important to be able to work independently, and manage time efficiently.
