A Career In Finance
June 29th, 2006
Question: I want to make a career in investment Banking And Finance. What qualification or degree should I go for?
I want to start a Career In Finance, especially investment banking. I would to know what qualifications really help in this field. Please be elaborate and tell me about qualification as well. And feel free to leave links for reference. Thanks
Answer: Hi! I am into investment banking as well. I graduated with a BBA in finance and passed CFA Level 1 this past Dec. So get started on your CFA it will help A LOT! Also if you still in college then get involved in business related associations. I made a huge mistake of not getting involved and not keeping my grades up. My portfolio magmt teacher ran this portfolio for the university...it was looked over by her students. I never even thought of going into but now I think it would have been a GREAT help.
You cannot get into this industry without some experience. There are lots of great "New Analyst" programs for recent grads or soon-to-be-grad students. Go to Goldman Sachs, ING, UBS, RBS, and other big investment banks. They have really good programs that go on for 2 to 3 years are filled with real experience. and YES these programs are open even in these difficult times.
If you are just starting college then don't miss out on this. I regret it a lot. Now I am neither a newly grad nor an experienced prof and without experience it is very difficult to get a job in investment banking.
Hope this helps. Also join LinkedIn
