Question about Experience
Brief Background: 3.6 cum 3.7 maj GPA in a non-target but top-tier LAC. Business/Econ double major. Rising Junior Solid ECs. Foreıgn student.
Interested in I-Banking obviously.
My question is in my last two summers I had three internships in Istanbul:
Summer 06: Internship in financial reporting department of a major airport operations company. Basically prepared financial statements and a quarterly report.
This summer I had two brief interships 1) Major National Investment Bank IBD for a month. Worked on the initial phase of one very big deal and prepared a teaser presentation for investors for another very big national company. 2) Treasury & Capital Markets in one of the biggest global banks for 1.5 months. Dealt currencies, gold, bonds and some derıvatives. Sales side.
I have two questions. 1-How does this compare in terms of experience to other prospectives for the SA position? Any critique/input will be appreciated. 2-How can I describe these internships in my resume and in the interview to my fullest advantage? I choose these internships over other offers I had for various reasons. But I am wondering what other people might think of them.
Oh yeah I used to post from another account, but I cant access my personal email at work to check my password.
why didn't you get more USA experience? Do you plan to stayin the US to work?
yeah thats what I am planning, but as a sophomore the best offer I got was the generic BB PWM financial advisory. I wanted to do something more interesting than that. Also there is a limit on the months I can intern in the States, and I wanted to save that for next summer&post graduation.
If you got legit experience at these places (or can at least play it off like you did) then you should be set. From what I hear, foreign internships are always something great to talk about. I do agree however that it'd probably have been smart to try and get some experience in the states too, but you should be okay
