Any advice for 1st year analyst at regional boutique investment banks?
I come from a super non target finance background and networked my way in from undergrad with banking unrelated internships. Since starting I’ve been having a super tough time climbing the learning curve and it feels like I am causing my problems then we started when I’m asked to do something. I really love the people here and they have been very helpful in trying to work to get me up to speed. However, I can’t help but shake the feeling they’re getting ready to fire me for being inadequate at my core functions. They’re a pretty lean deal team which on one hand is great because I gain a ton of exposure but on other hand it magnifies every mistake I make on the job. I feel overloaded and overwhelmed while trying to learn 20 things everyday and also study for my licenses which just makes me more flustered on the job.
I know I’m only a few months in but any advice would be appreciated for someone who’s been there.
I think in the beginning, it's understood that you will add zero value. You need to spend all of your free time reviewing concepts, old materials, everything you can. Come up with smart questions, slow down and tackle one thing at a time.
Appreciate the advice
