Hi,
I'm going to study a non-finance course at King's College London [Politcs-related] and was wondering whether it is still possible for me to be succesful in securing internships/full-time positions at the likes of GS/JP/MS within IBD. If so, what can I do to maximize those chances while at uni?
I've heard that KCL is a non-target in the UK despite it's not-too-bad reputation in other industries so any help would be highly appreciated.
Its a semi target. As you are/will be based in London network as much as you can, try to find a part time job in something finance related and apply to spring weeks. Join finance societies and you should be fine.
And there are other really good banks than just GS/MS/JPM. This is just WSO and a dick measuring contest.
Thanks for reply!
I know that there are many other banks but just wanted to know about possibilities in general As to a part-time job, could you be a little more specific as to what I could find? I've been looking for job adverts for weeks now and there's nothing remotely related available to 1st year undergrads and nothing in finance especially.
Network, ask around, send your CV to small boutiques/PE/VCs...
Try to get High grades, being non finance, try to be involved in Finance Club or stuff like that. Try to secure a Spring Week and a Pe internship as 1 st student (there are tiny Buy&Build funds that offer internships. And obviously build your network
