Lo mejor: Prior to coming to Spain, I was not aware of Santander Group´s importance in the global markets. In the first month of internship, I was exposed on the global relationship management model of Santander´s wholesale banking which includes understanding of all different off the shelf products as well as customised products. I was also preparing the monthly reports and pitch books as well as providing research and due diligence reports to the global offices around Europe. It has been an enjoyable experience and I have worked with a good team.

Lo mejor: I was looking for a program offering the possibility to start working in the banking industry from the 1st day after my graduation. CIFF’s program resulted to be ideal. Its pragmatic view, in conjunction with the solid theoretical background of its professors, were key elements to smoothly get into any financial institution. Moreover, its international orientation perfectly replicated today’s working situations, providing its graduates with an invaluable competitive advantage. All this, backed by two top institutions like Grupo Santander and Universidad de Alcalá. It was just a perfect deal.
