ALEX, 2023 Participant
______________
Being able to visit the Bloomberg office was so exciting, and it made me feel enthusiastic about the future.
Attending these events in London has also been a really good experience - I've had to step out of my comfort zone, and genuinely feel that I have gained so much confidence in myself. By participating in these insight days and having a mentor I have been able to build my confidence in my own skillset, and has played a significant role in me securing a place at Lazard in summer - something that I believed I would not be able to achieve before HerCapital.
TESTIMONIALS
