  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

    • I was in the Markets line of business where I was on the Chemical Equity Research team. My task was to compare the reports of two companies and see the similarities and differences between the data. The reports were on the capacities of two different chemicals, TDI and MDI. I was also given a quiz with 100 questions to research and complete.
