Student testimonials

Alexander Mireskandari

Hello everyone, my name is Alexander and I graduated from HEG in June 2017.

I soon found an internship in a bank – BNP Paribas – where I started as an intern; I was mainly responsible for inventory management. My missions included counterparty risk analyses, but also statistics compilations on goods stored in the whole world and customer risk analyses. Then, all the information was transferred to another risk department in charge of deciding what maximum amounts the bank was willing to deposit in certain countries or invest in commodities so as to spread the risks.

Afterwards, still within BNP Paribas, I worked in the documentary credit department where my task was to issue financial instruments, LCs, to finance various goods or cargoes such as wheat, oil, rice or metals. I did this job for BNP Paribas and also for Crédit Agricole. An experience in two different companies really enabled me to see diverse structures and how banks work.

During my studies at HEG, team work and varied working methods clearly helped me to develop the flexibility and adaptability necessary for my internships in banks.

In February 2021, I was hired in a trading company where I am responsible for filing transactions in various banks. The trading company has credit lines in all the banks represented here and my job will be to find the one that will grant us the best possible rate in order to lower the company costs as much as much as possible.

The electives I chose at HEG, namely Trade & Commodity Finance and Shipping, gave me access to this professional career. 


Maxime Provini

My name is Maxime PROVINI and I am an entrepreneur. In December 2018, I had the pleasure to set up my company called Ô CAVE Wine Explorers.

I developed my entrepreneurial spirit during my studies at HEG where I attended various classes that gave me valuable insight into entrepreneurship, but also into business management in all its aspects. This led to my motivation for creating and undertaking.

So, in December 2018, I launched Ô Cave with 3 partners. Our activity includes exploring, selecting and tasting wine. We like to present it this way, it is a bit different from what we usually see. According to this useful tip learnt during my studies : “Do it like others, but a little differently, a little better.”

To achieve this, different steps were necessary :

The first one was to structure our idea, even if only in our head. What do we want to do and how ? I used different tools and thus, after one year, was able to clearly imagine the direction we should give to our company.

Then was the time to set off on adventure. We had to meet prospective suppliers and promote our company to attract potential customers; that was the launching period aiming to actually sell our first wine bottle, import our first wine bottle. Here also, I was able to observe the international dimension I had tackled during my studies. At the beginning, I went myself to the customs to deal with the movement of goods. This is interesting as you are truly on the ground ! It is easy to see a wine box being delivered to your home, but tracking customs transit and doing paperwork to get it is completely different. That was a hands-on learning experience for my partners and me.

It's now been two years since the company was founded and we are proud to be here today. The first year was quite complicated; now I would say that we are really in a development period, a growth phase and all the steps explained above are in fact a summary of the tools I had the opportunity to gain during my studies at HEG.
