RFA Super Saturday

This past saturday was Rotman's Finance Super Saturday. We had a host of speakers from all the major banks talk about some of the different flavours of finance including investment banking, equity research and sales and trading.

There were a series of live interviews with Joe, Katie and Carl. They were asked questions ranging from "Why investment banking?" to "How would you value a mining company?" with live realtime critiquing on how to best craft our answers to deliver maximum impact in a short amount of time.

Other great questions included: "What types of valuation methods are there?" "Which ones will produce the highest value?" etc.

It's great to see the connections that Rotman has in industry as current alumni were telling us about their roles and offered us insight into how to best compose our application materials and prepare for interviews.
