Finance internship (Preferably banking)
So I am a junior at a top 30 liberal arts college (us news), and a top 20 schools by forbes ranking. I am an unddecided pre-med. I have plently of medical shadowing, research(1 publication hopefully by the end of this summer), hundreds of hours of volunteering. Varsity athlte. I also have some work experience teaching my sport. Ran the camp at my country club for a few summers. Made some good money. But i want to try banking just because I have been torn between medicine and banking for the longest time. I like the draw of being a doctor. But i also love finance, following markets, etc. Is there any way I can get any sort of experience in this field. I want to work in finance for 1 summer at least so i can experience both professions. Or maybe I will see it is what i truly like. I am willing to work for free although money is better.
I still have about a year till next summer but I am asking you guys for help to find experience. any suggestions?
