The Challenge: levelling the playing field
In 2023, RBC's Early Careers Team turned to AmplifyME to develop a solution to help them upskill participants of their Capital Markets Women’s Advisory Programme across just five weeks, which helps first-year university women build the knowledge, experience and confidence required to land a place on their summer internships and beyond.
- The Programme requires intensive upskilling of participants in three global locations within short timeframes ranging from a few days to five weeks.
- Participants typically lack understanding of available roles and have minimal commercial acumen, so building this along with confidence was crucial.
- RBC's Careers Team needed to understand each candidate's unique strengths and weaknesses for accurate division placement, retention and performance.
