Around this time every year, thousands of university students start thinking about internships at big investment banks, many of which run some kind of programme for people aspiring to get into the world of finance and banking.
Most banks have deadlines around November. So if you're looking for an internship and haven't yet applied, you'd better get going.
From the outside, the world of banking can be pretty intimidating, so we decided to take a look inside and see what interns do day-to-day.
In August this year, we got the chance to go inside JPMorgan's London office and shadow one of the bank's hundreds of interns.
Interns at the bank spend 10 weeks working over the university summer holidays, with the ultimate goal being a full-time job with the bank. The intern we followed, Sophie, studies economics at the University of Cambridge, and she was kind enough to take us through a day in her shoes.
This is what she got up to during one day as a JPMorgan intern.
It's an early start. Interns like Sophie have to be at their desks by 6:30 a.m. in London's Canary Wharf.
JPMorgan's London headquarters is this 31-storey tower on Bank Street. The bank bought the tower in 2010 — it had previously belonged to Lehman Brothers.
Sophie, the intern we followed, worked in global equity sales. She was there for 10 weeks in the summer, having completed other internship periods at the bank previously. The desk essentially sells shares from around the world to largely UK-based clients.
