I go to a non target school. I am double majoring in Accounting and Finance. I will be done in a year. I have held seasonal tax work, 2 years of stock broker internship at a brokerage firm, and finally just got into a global mutual fund company as a securities pricing intern. I was thinking of hitting up IB after a few months in this new internship. Any tips/advice/input would be appreciated.
