Seeking advice - Employed at a very large inter-dealer broker
I'm 28 and currently employed at a very large inter-dealer broker as an Engineer. (NYC)
I've been contemplating changing my career path to brokering\trading. I have a degree in Finance & Investments from CUNY Baruch.
How difficult would it be to transition to the finance side? I currently make 75k + bonus, would I be looking at a substantial pay cut? I have zero job experience in finance - but I do work very closely with voice and electronic brokering. Would pursuing a graduate degree work in my favor?
The IT life has proven to be rather dull. And I'm tired of working with introverted personalities.
Thanks
A graduate degree would definitely help you and you wouldn't be taking much of a pay cut at the entry level with a BB. After bonus, you may actually see an increase.
Check out Baruch's Masters in Financial Engineering program, it is VERY competitive.
MBA, MSF, or MFE?
