Cabinet CEIS
"During my Master's degree in International Security and Defense at ILERI , I completed my end-of-studies internship at CEIS, a Parisian strategy consultancy, as a junior analyst.
During these six months, many varied assignments were entrusted to me, ranging from strategic and sectoral intelligence in the Middle East to the production of monographs for institutional clients.
Beyond giving me credibility in the field, with clients and a first-rate experience in a consulting firm, this internship will have allowed me to reaffirm my vocation to become a strategy consultant. "
