So you've been doing IB for a month or so, and you can already tell it's not for you?

 

Yeah, I hear you. I think markets-based stuff is more interesting too. Do you think mundane work was due to your sector/industry, or just any IB work would be tedious? 

 

IB work in general is bitch work. I’ll do it for a year then ride. I need a strong why when doing things. Learning on a trade desk will be challenging every day. My drive is to learn more about the product I intend to trade and S&T gives you the opportunity to learn that at a professional level and paying you at the same time. If only i knew what I knew now I would’ve gone for s&t from day 1. But I guess I’m still early and have that choice.
