Career Resources
Based on the WSO Dataset, here are some steps you might consider:
Start in a local role: Many funds in Australia (like Pinnacle affiliates, Platinum, etc.) take grads directly. This could be a good starting point to gain experience and build your skills.
Consider Equity Research (ER): ER can provide a more intense environment that could be a better training ground as a young professional. The international brands would also allow for international mobility.
Transfer internationally: If you're already at a Bulge Bracket (BB) bank, you might be able to transfer internationally. This could help you build contacts and market knowledge in hubs like New York.
Pursue further education: If you're targeting the US, you might need an MBA, preferably from an Ivy League school, to break into a BB.
Network: Networking is key in the hedge fund industry. You need to convince someone you're going to add value from day one or will learn everything you need to add value in just a couple of months.
Remember, these are just suggestions and the pathway can vary greatly depending on individual circumstances and opportunities.

Probs work in S&T at a Global IB, move internally to HK if you can't go straight to NY, then move to NY?
