Best ER Adjacent Careers
Hi guys. I’m in my senior year of college and this last summer I just completed a research internship at a boutique firm. Unfortunately, there were no return offers, so now I’m rerecruiting for FT. I want to give myself a margin of safety if I’m unable to break into research before I graduate. What are some other research adjacent careers? Research is my long-term goal, so I’m looking for careers that help develop the skills needed to break into research if I cannot before I graduate. Additionally, what does the recruiting look like for these careers? Thank you.
Accounting, IR, credit risk at a ratings agency, working for a central bank. Commercial/corporate banking. Research at a wealth manager.
Off top of my head.
Thank you. For accounting would I need to take the CPA route?
Big 4 kind of thing yes.
Oh also consulting! Like strategy consulting.
Big banks hire ex MBB people quite often into ER. Especially when you've had a sector focus and you're hired to cover that sector.
That makes sense, thank you! I’m assuming the networking process is probably pretty similar for getting into these roles as research or banking?
