graduated last spring and been an associate on the desk for 9 months. There’s definitely a steep learning curve so you should be prepared to be humbled. I still think it’s possible to go into tech. Personally, banking provides a lot of optionality. very few jobs where you have access to senior management as 29 year old. there’s a lot of admin tasks or ppt work but every job has this. have considered exiting after 2-4 years and trying to get into PE. very difficult and will require significant networking. overall happy with my decision as I know it won’t last forever.
