Is it worth the time?

Defining Internship vs OJT vs Job Assimilation vs Job Simulation

Here are some virtual job simulations that you can also take for free on Forage:

  1. Investment Banking — JPMorgan Chase
  2. Investment Banking — Bank of America
  3. Private Equity and M&A —(BLCP) Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner
  4. Tata Data Visualization: Empowering Business with Effective Insights
  5. Quantitative Research - JPMorgan Chase & Co.

These are just a few valuable job simulations available for practice on Forage. These simulations are provided by various companies themselves. The platform offers you the opportunity to network through each talent network funnel while posting updated talent searches for direct internships or job opportunities to companies.

Perks include access to a pool of interview preparation tips, talent networks, profile screening priority, and more. While the platform cannot guarantee direct acceptance, it provides you with the opportunity and freedom to connect virtually and directly with various companies.

Besides learning skills and gaining insight into your company’s culture, it will provide you with a clear understanding of your responsibilities, including giving you a proper understanding of what you will be doing in the specific job role for that particular company.

Now, is it worth my time? For me, yes. Is it worth your time?

If you’re looking to network, gain experience, and understand what your dream career would entail in a real setting, then it’s definitely worth a shot!

Not only will it elevate your skills to some extent, but it will also boost your confidence in knowing what to expect in your chosen field.

Ciao!
