I am very grateful the Torreya team invited me to come with them on their business trip to Seoul, Osaka, and Tokyo. It was great to be able to attend the client meetings and get hands on experience in doing business with clients from different countries.
What I wish was different
I wish I had more time to spend in each place! We did work in all three cities in the span of just 6 days.
Advice
If you have the chance to go abroad for an internship, don't pass it up! It's a very enlightening experience and I would recommend it to everyone, regardless of your field of interest.

Investment Banking Intern
June - August 2018 • Mumbai, Maharashtra
What I liked
The people at work. They were good supervisors and at the same time good friends as well. Work didn't stress me out as much even though it was a high pressured job.
What I wish was different
The deals they were working on. I did not get to contribute very much to the existing deals going on because they were in the closing stage.
Advice
Investment Banking is definitely not for everyone. You need to be really sure before doing it. It's not just about the hours but also the pressure of the job and nature of the work.
