Freelance/Part-time jobs?

I'm a BA film student. I want to make films and that's there. I also am interested in finance/business. Planning to prepare for CFA. I want to know what sort of part-time or freelance finance related jobs are available at financial firms, especially on Wall Street? Also will CFA suffice or do I have to think about an MBA from the target schools? If CFA ain't sufficient I don't want to waste my time then, I will just focus on films and then prepare for the GMAT. If CFA is accepted by Wall Street for freelance then I am happy.

What kind of roles are you interested in? You mention IB and HFs in another post so Ill be blunt. Freelance, part-time, and Wall St do not occur in the same sentence. You’re are not going to waltz your way into a part-time IB gig to fund your filmmaking. No MBA of CFA will help you with this goal either.

If you want to make films and you are interested in finance, look into making finance documentaries or maybe financial journalism of some kind. I’m sure you can find a way to meld your interests.
