Business Technology Intern

June - August 2021 • Minneapolis, MN

What I liked

I earned a lot on corporate communication, cross functional collaboration and executive presentation.

What I wish was different

I wish my Manager was more present and kept up with me, but he had a paternity leave which was understandable. I got assistance from other Salesforce Center of Excellence team members.

Advice

This experience was amazing and got me prepared for my future career. RBC US Wealth Management did a good job with preparing me for the real world. My volunteer experience with helping end world hunger was amazing as well.

IT intern

June - August 2020 • Minneapolis, MN

What I liked

The team environment, the technologies used and the learning experience for interns.

What I wish was different

The communication with the interns could be better.

Advice

I would recommend everyone in college to grab this opportunity. I learned a lot from this internship that I hadn’t learned from college. I got the exposure of what the real world career looks like and I am proud of it.

Finance intern

June - August 2020 • Minneapolis, MN

What I liked

The group of interns were awesome, it was great to connect with them. The company as a whole is so great. Everyone that I connected with was so helpful, everyone in the company was able and willing to help out or just speak to the interns. It was really cool to have the CEO come on and talk to the interns. Other of the C-suite executives were even willing to speak to individual interns, which is not like a lot of companies. It was a virtual internship so not having to drive in to the office was nice.

What I wish was different

I was just thankful to have the internship in person, but it would have been cool to have it in person. Other than that there is nothing I would change.

Advice

Make sure to connect with and make relationships with as many people in the company and interns as possible.

Financial Advisor Recruiting Intern

June - August 2019 • Minneapolis, MN

What I liked

I liked being able to network within the company. Everyone was more than willing to get together and grab coffee and provide insight regarding their job experience. I was able to work closely with other interns on a capstone project that actually made a difference in the company.

What I wish was different

I honestly would not have wished anything to have been different. It was a great experience.

Advice

Make the most of it. Reach out and try to meet with as many people as possible. Get your work done and go above and beyond to make an impact.

IT Intern

June - August 2019 • Minneapolis, MN

What I liked

The mentors, people and culture. I absolutely loved it!

What I wish was different

I wish I had spent more time in different departments learning their technologies.

Advice

If you get an opportunity to work in this company, you should definitely take it. RBC values employees who are eager to learn and move forward with the company. They provide tons of learning opportunities to learn and grow, take advantage of those. They have a paid 2hrs break for all the employees on Fridays which they call 'Focus Friday'. Employees can use that time to learn any technology of their choice.

Intern

May - July 2018 • Beverly Hills, CA

What I liked

I really liked learning about investing and about all the different roles a financial advisor has. It was cool having access to so many insight resources such as private webcasts, articles, and lunch seminars. I also got to learn Bloomberg, and did some cool projects related to stock research and asset allocation.
