Recruitment agencies/ HR managers do background checks when hiring, incl. on employment history, so you will have to explain it to them. That is why it is important.

Ye I had massive doubts about Green Rock. Still stupid enough to enrol. Thought I’d try the Investment Analysis mentorship. Company was called Digital Banking Direct and my mentor was a Mr Weber. Couldn’t find any details on this company other than on their website. Tasks I had to do were littered with spelling mistakes and poor grammar. He (if this ‘Mr Weber’ really exists) tended to respond a day after I emailed him. Whenever I needed help his responses would also be filled with mistakes and very vague.Pretty much just have to live with the fact I’ve been scammed out of my money. Handed them my CV and they changed a few lines. They emailed me advising me to apply for 10-15 jobs per day lol. Very very confident that most of their positive reviews are fake. Absolutely gutted I’ve been duped.

I usually get 2/3 replies from Damian a day if I do reach him early in the day. But yes I understand...not much info out there on Digital Banking Direct, but on your CV if you can highlight the stuff you learnt throughout the mentorship rather than what company you went with..it should work out hopefully

Has anyone who enrolled come to the end of their internship? How did you find it & what next steps are you doing?

So I haven't all the posts on this thread, however I have taken part in their Trainee Investment Analyst programme from July to October. My mentor was Mr. Weber, and the tasks I was set had good spelling, grammar and instructions. I found quite a few tasks challenging and whenever I sent an email for help/advice, I would receive it. Overall what I learnt through these tasks has boosted my experience.
Having no previous experience in Finance/Investment, this scheme was useful to me and its given me more to talk about. It's not as powerful as a full year in industry, but its something. I paid around £300-£400 I think for the programme and given the experience I've gained I would say it's worthwhile. They will keep sending you tasks, so the more you do the more you'll get out of it. The tasks are pre prepared.
I haven't managed to secure a role yet since graduation, so it does not guarantee employment.

My experience is similar I did the accounting program. They did not help me get a job I had to find a role myself. They applied for some roles for me but I applied for a role and the firm was happy with the experience. If you just need experience and mentorship go for it. Dont enrol expecting a job.
