Clearwater International attends Bocconi University’s Investment Banking Days
Clearwater International recently participated in this year’s Investment Banking Days, hosted by Bocconi University in Milan, sharing insights on corporate finance and career opportunities within the industry.
The networking event, which spanned over two days in September, was designed for students and graduates who aspire to pursue a career in corporate finance, offering opportunities for individuals curious about the industry to interact with renowned corporate finance businesses like Clearwater International.
The event provided an opportunity for more than 300 talented students and graduates to interact with industry experts including members of the Clearwater team, Director Michele Castiglioni, Analyst Chiara Rasenti, Office Manager Rebecca Ferrami, and International Talent Director Fraser Tidman, to impact career guidance and tips on recruitment programs. The attendees were able to ask questions and gain insights into what working in corporate finance entails.
Our participation in the various recruitment and engagement events, such as the Investment Banking Days, plays an important part in Clearwater International’s people and talent strategy. We’re dedicated to fostering a culture of excellence and growth within the firm, and this can only be achieved through the attraction, development, and retention of the best talent. We recognise that through strong partnerships with leading universities and education centres across Europe, the firm is now in a stronger position to attract and recruit from a diverse and motivated pool of talent.
Michele Castiglioni, Director, shared their thoughts on the networking event:
"Participating in Bocconi University’s Investment Banking Days event has been a pleasure and a successful experience. Together with the rest of the team, I had the opportunity to connect with over 300 highly talented students and recent graduates to discuss what working in corporate finance means. It has been a pleasure to see how young, motivated talents are willing to start a career in investment banking, and take Clearwater International into such a high consideration as well as to share with them my corporate finance experiences.”
Fraser Tidman, International Talent Director, added:
“I was pleased to support our Milan office at this year’s Bocconi University Investment Banking Days. This event demonstrates the Italian team's strong partnership with the university and commitment to sourcing high-quality talent as well as the potential deal leaders of the future. The opportunity to interact with hundreds of students and engage with them about their career aspirations was such a positive experience, it was clear from the conversations with students and recent graduates that they hold Clearwater International in high regard, and it was great to discuss our culture, values, and people – which is at the core of our employer brand.”
