Becoming an analyst halfway?
I am thinking of my career in ibanking. Thanks for reading my story.
I got my BS in computer science when I was 21, however, I found that I was not interested in programming jobs at all. I was not surprised that I failed to get an analyst position because my college was not Harvard/MIT etc, and then I went to a state university and got my MS in math (I received the admission from NYU math dept but they did not offer me the full assistantship... sigh).
Although the rank of math of my university is not bad, its bschool is rank and file, therefore, I could not take advantage of the alumni network. So finally I landed a fundamental research position in fixed-inc in NYC upon graduating last year.
I am 24 now and have passed CFA 2. Ibanking is still my dream and it seems that ibd seldoms recruit experienced people as analysts, although I am very willing to accept a lower payment and learn from the beginning. I wonder if somebody here could share some ideas with me on how to become a halfway analyst. Thanks again!
join as an associate after bschool.
Now is not a bad time to be looking. There are always opportunities if you find the right firm who sees you as the right fit. never hurts to try.
Yeah, I agree...joing as an associate after business school.
As an analyst, your job is to get crapped on.
