'Theory will take you only so far'
Is what physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer stated. While I am not concerned with developing an atomic bomb, I think this can be interpreted in multiple ways; within your social life, your studies and your career.
At the University of Groningen, I obtained my master's degree in Finance. During this period, I got to know JBR during one of the in-house days organized by the university. I thought it would be a good combination to gain work experience in the field of my expertise, business economics and finance, in addition to writing my master's thesis. JBR offered me the opportunity to do so.
Since last August, I had been working part-time in the field of Corporate Finance, where I have now started as a Trainee. Since then I have found it a lot of fun and also educational to put the theory I have acquired over the past years into practice. The diversity between the assignments makes that no two days are the same and the atmosphere on the work floor is great. I think JBR is a wonderful company where collegiality is of paramount importance.
I get my energy from consulting and discussing assignments and problems we encounter in them. But most of all, I enjoy tackling and solving these things together. It is interesting to see that everyone has a unique perspective, from which there is much to learn. The broader the perception, the better the solution.
