    bump.

    was wondering what the view is on this place? their website seems really out of date and half done.

    they called about work experiences but apparently its 3 months and no £, not even travel expenses :-/

    I did an internship at EEFC for three months.* During this period of learning, I was able to expand on my knowledge in financial markets and gained substantial insights into many economics-related issues. I consider all the tasks I did at the Centre a great learning opportunity

    This work experience gave me the chance to enhance my skill sets. Working in a multi-cultural environment ensured that I have to be up to speed with my team working skills.
    Being a part of EEFC as an Intern was a great privilege. I really appreciated working alongside the staff of EEFC.

    I worked at this organisation and during that period I gained much insight into the real workings of markets, economies and banks which I would not have experienced during my studies. I learnt about new tools and how to analyse data and key macroeconomic indicators.

    This firm sends out a job ad through LSE's SU - I received an ad today? I have looked this one up as well. Not sure about how credible the information on the website is. According to the website, Ben Bernanke is one of the "guest speakers" there.

    Even a half-decent organisation maintains a good website. Even a scam company maintains a good website to fool people. Most of EEFC's links don't work. And they do executive MBA? What's up with that?
