good-but-not-outstanding profile advice
Good evening, I hope this post finds you well!
I am a third year Finance BSc student starting a two year MSc in Finance in a top EU School (think of HEC/Bocconi/St. Gallen...) and I am here asking for a suggestion. I think that helping my 'middle' positioning can be helpful to a lot of others interested in breaking into IB.
I am talking a about 'middle' position to highlight that I am not such a strong profile (Top gpa - Internships - Clubs...), but neither a Low level profile, as i have at least sufficiently good grades, a strong real passion for finance (though i haven't applied for clubs yet), and two no-name company internships. Moreover, I will start an off-cycle at a top 30 REPE Funds in december.
My desire would be to work in London, and since I am enrolled in a two year MSc starting in September this should be my shot.
What would you suggest to me in my case? Do you think I have a real chance to work in an investment bank? (In IB in particular, but I'd be interested to know also opinions about S&T, Research, AM). What do you think of my profile? What would you suggest to an 'average' profile as I think mine is?
I appreciate a lot every response.
P.S.: I appreciate also every thought you have on applying for SA positions while not being a super top candidate but a discrete-average-middle positioning candidate.
I am in a similar situation. Here I often feel like you need to be some sort of superhuman to break into high finance. Are we average good students just destined to big4? Lol
