Investment Bankers GTFIH

I desire to become an investment banker and must interview one for my class (career-related paper). The questions are non-intrusive, and it would be wonderful if someone could answer them.Thank you.

1. Why did you choose this career?
2. What do you like the most about this career? The least?
3. What is the potential for advancement in this career?
4. What advice would you give someone just starting out in this career?
