Hello,
I am planning to pursue a masters degree at LSE or LBS and will graduate in 2024. My concern is landing a IB analyst position in London. Previous experience is equity research, part-time for about 1.5 years. I’m from the Nordics, and will thus require sponsorship for working visa etc, which I believe is a disadvantage.
Given good grades at uni, what are my chances? How can I increase them?
I really appreciate any input on this.
Thank you
