Half fit & half markets. Like all industry specific banks, you need to demonstrate passion and genuine interest in the field. Even for your own benefit, the way banking becomes manageable is if you actually enjoy what you do. I've been in jobs where 40 hours felt like 80 and jobs where 60 felt like 30. Get smart on fintech and find a vertical you think is sick and can speak intelligently too.

Thank you! They were talking about discounting my experience too so I will need to find a way to have that conversation too.
