CFA or internship before masters of finance
Hi everyone, im in a bit of a dillema. I have 3 months free till college starts in October 2016. In september 2017 ill start my masters in a new country, germany, as i want to get a masters of finance there as well as a job. I speak german by the way, and was thinking.
What would be better for me now to have as an asset when looking for a job in germany as a newcommer and student of masters of finance (corporate finance/risk management jobs): 1. passed CFA level 1 or 2. 6 month internship in corporate finance/risk management
intern. 1) the CFA is geared toward portfolio management rather than corp. fin, and 2) if you don't pass, you have nothing to show for you time.
Idk about Europe but here in the states an internship would probably be the best choice. You can pass level 1 of the CFA during or right after your MSF.
Why not just do both? Totally achievable.
Hey,
in Germany everyone cares about internships. It is not uncommon to have like 4 or 5 at the end of your master's degree. The CFA is not that important. I am studying at a German target university and nobody does the CFA exam because it is does not give you a huge advantage in IBD in Germany.
If I were you, I would send out applications to all major banks, etc.
The answer is both.
