Investment Strategy to Investment Banking

Actuary here at a large insurance carrier, MSc (non-target school)… 4YOE looking to pivot to IB. Have committed some resources to the pivot. Passed the SIE after 2 days studying and writing the Series 63 soon.

Don’t know how to crack the networking barrier… read a few books/articles… just haven’t hit the stride yet. Would appreciate any tips / advice.
