We came to AmplifyME with the goal of enhancing our Capital Markets Women’s Advisory Program, and the results have been truly remarkable.

Our goal was to elevate our upskilling sessions, ensuring that the trainees were well-prepared for the demands of internships and full-time roles in the industry. AmplifyME’s approach was exactly what we needed.

Through the immersive simulations, participants step into the shoes of various industry roles, from Junior IB Analysts to Traders to ESG Investment Managers. These scenarios provide an unparalleled understanding of the industry’s intricacies, strategies, and challenges. The trainees emerge with sharpened skills, heightened confidence, and a comprehensive perspective that empowers them to engage meaningfully with industry professionals, whether in informational calls, coffee chats, or interviews.

The impact on our trainees has been evident. They transformed in front of our eyes and are now equipped with a level of awareness and expertise that sets them apart. They’ve become adept at handling real-world scenarios, and as our program has evolved over the years, so has AmplifyME’s offering, reflecting their commitment to growth and excellence.

What sets them apart from others is the extraordinary team behind it. Comprising seasoned finance professionals, they not only possess a deep passion for the subject matter, but also the willingness to tailor solutions to our unique requirements. This combination of expertise and flexibility sets them apart.

Working alongside Amplify has been a true pleasure. The RBC UK Women’s Advisory Programme has greatly benefited from their partnership. Their team’s passion, innovation, and high performance have been instrumental in nurturing the next generation of finance professionals. With Amplify, we’ve found not just a training provider, but a dedicated ally in our mission to empower and elevate.

The Impact

  • 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.
