Too late for a finalist to break into Finance London??
Hey guys,
Just wanted your 2 cents on my situation, would really appreciate any input: Main goal is to break into finance (IBD/ER/AM/Corp Dev maybe even PE/VC etc.) in London - ideally BB but don’t mind if it’s a EB/MM or even a “smaller but well known” type firm.
A bit about my profile: • International student (SEA) • At target school (think Oxbridge/ICL) 3rd year -graduating with Master's in Engineering in June 2021 • Decent GPA: 3.80/4.00 (i.e. 2.1 to 1st class) • Decent internship experiences: Big tech FAAMG & MBB & but in Singapore not UK + MBB Spring & Biz Dev for a startup (in UK)
No prior “proper” finance experiences in London before, do you think I still have a shot at FT?? OR should try my luck and apply to SAs instead then hope to convert straight afterwards (but this means I would probably need to take another master’s which is not really ideal) ?
Heard that breaking to FTs straightaway with no IB SA experiences is too hard so that’s why I’m asking.
Stay safe y’all + thanks for any comments in advance!
