Is 24 too old to join IBD?
Hi guys,
I'm just finishing my bachelor's degree and then I want to take a 9 month break to do some internships, apply for my master's and travel the world (since I won't have time if I work full time). After that, I want to do my Master's and expect to finish my degree at 24.
Is it too late to go into IB then?
Cheers
- I know there was a similiar post in 2012 but I am afraid that it is outdatet.

I’m 25 and will be joining GS/MS/JPM IBD in London in August. I’m from Europe though.. So I guess it’s not too late. Also, I think being mature is very positive for any job, especially IB.
I don´t know about the US, but it´s pretty common to start college in Europe later so it probably wouldn´t be a problem.
Most people from continental Europe do a Master's degree with a placement year, so 24 is totally common to join IB.
I joined at 26... you’ll be ok lol
it´s fine, you´re on track
