Prosper Programme Success Stories
Mathew Lynch - 2006 Prosper Graduate
As a graduate with two years experience in the banking industry, my goal was to move into a firm that has a strong history of merger and acquisition and capital market experience. As a leading mid-market advisory firm, with a strong network of retail and institutional advisers, Wilson HTM Investment Group was a great choice to begin this career move.
Since starting the Prosper Programme, not only have I worked with Wilson HTM Investment Group's Corporate Finance and Equity Capital Markets departments, I have also gained exposure to retail and institutional advisery, financial planning and research. Together, with its excellent market position, the diverse career opportunities and the friendly culture, Wilson HTM Investment Group is an excellent place to develop your career.
Kirron Schmidt - 2006 Prosper Graduate
I am a part of the successful 2006 Wilson HTM Investment Group Prosper Programme. I completed a Bachelor of Commerce Degree at Latrobe University in Melbourne in mid-2005.
After working in international trade finance for six months with a large bank in Shanghai I returned to Australia to fulfil my passion to work on the frontline of the financial markets. The Wilson HTM Investment Group Prosper Programme offered me the perfect opportunity to achieve my goal.
From the very beginning of the programme, I was encouraged to take on as much responsibility as possible and to increase my fundamental knowledge through study and training - providing the basis for success in the firm.
The rotational aspect of the programme also appeals to me as it gives me experience in seven different areas of the firm. During these rotations, I not only learn how the firm works, I am also able to assess my strengths and find what interests me. It has also provided me with the opportunity to form relationships throughout the firm which I will be able to draw upon in the future.
