Analyst at 25
Hello, Do firms hire people for analyst role at 25?I'm looking to apply for my Masters degree (not MBA) and I don't have workex to start at associate role. I also don't mind starting as an entry level analyst at 25. I'm not looking for a BB Ib role, infact I wanna start my career working at an EB as an analyst. Looking for some honest advice.
Thanks
Tbh even if you want to start as a analyst at 30 if you are qualified and will work I don’t see why they wouldn’t hire you, would seem like a idiotic move by a company not to hire someone because they are 30 vs 23.
I think the only concern is the grind. But one of my mentors started as a Analyst in his 30's and then grinded his way to MD on a fast track because people took him more seriously.
I’m 25 and will start as an A1 at a London EB in a couple of months - no problem at all here.
Pretty common in London/EU (Europeans).
Not as big of a deal as you might think. I know an Ex-Marine who joined as an A1, at 31. You'll be fine, trust me.
kind of an L to be an analyst at 25 but if you want it, then go for it

Only if he joins your team and has to work with you.

26 year old second year analyst here - nobody or no bank will care at all.
Being an older analyst is way more common then you'd think and happens for multiple reasons:
At 25 years old you will still be in an incredible career position that will open up numerous opportunities for you in the future. If you believe the right path for you is to go back to school don't let this stop you.
Were you a lateral Candidate? Also can you speak to your experience recruiting as an older analyst?
I didn't lateral personally, but had to take time off during college to tackle a series of surgeries.
As for recruiting it wasn't any different whatsoever. What was different was that I was able to expand on my story and make it a bit more unique.
I have seen various 28-29 A1s.. those tend to be more serious/mature, great additions to the team btw
I recently started though mid-year An, at 28
In my country (high school finishes at 19, military service, almost everyone does a Master) you would be hard pressed to find an AN1 much younger than 25, so no worries. What you will see in London is kind of a bimodal distribution, with the UK AN1's starting at 21/22 and the Continental Europe AN1's starting at 24/25
I'm a 27 yr old 2nd year ANL at a BB
