Hey,
I about to graduate form college pretty soon and therefore, I gotta plan my future well thought out. I have already completed two 3-months internship in the real estate industry (developing and financing), one 3-months and one 4-months internship at a well known Asset Management firm, a three months summer analyst program at a IB boutique and another 10-months junior analyst program at another IB boutique (I'm about to write my BA thesis at this boutique).
Anyway, since I wanna start my career at a bulge bracket, I was wondering whether I could start as a second or third year analyst instead of a first year analyst. What do you guys think? Do you think that this might work out?
Additionally, I am thinking about applying for a MBA program at a couple of Ivy league universities. What do you think about this?
Or do you have a complete different advice/ suggestion for me?
Many thanks so far!
With the MBA, many business schools prefer candidates who have completed a few years of work after having graduated from College.
My honest opinion:
-Despite all of your work, not sure if you'd be able to get credit for it and start as a 2nd/3rd year. In my BB office, we've had guys with full-time experience that didn't get credit and had to start as a 1st year all over again.
-So you're thinking about starting as a 2nd/3rd year, working for a year and going back to school? Why the rush? Maybe you want to get it out of the way, but really, I suggest you work for at least a couple of years and use school as a break, say after getting crushed after 2-3 years of being an analyst.
ok, fair enough.
kjl, do you think raising such an enquiry would have an unfavourable effect on my application?
