Cat Rutter Pooley, who was an intern at the Financial Times in 2017, supported by the Marjorie Deane Financial Journalism Foundation, writes:

“As an ex-City lawyer trying to break into journalism, the Marjorie Deane fellowship meant the FT could take a chance on me. Despite having limited writing experience, I got thrown in to covering everything from features on fund managers to helping with breaking news on a special live blog. It’s been challenging, intellectually stimulating and great fun: the best possible start to a career in reporting.”
