Career Resources
Seems a bit irrelevant, assuming you mean at any level. I know an MD who was a c-level exec at an F200 company, and had tons of industry connections and was somewhat regarded as a subject matter expert in a niche. He was at least 60, not sure what is hours were like.
Colin Powell off the top of my head. Plenty of others who were older I'm sure.
assuming he means as a school or other career path (at an entry level) to Street path, probably MFEs or PhDs.
Let me consult my Guinness Book of Wall Street Records and I'll get back to you.
Eric Cantor joined Moelis in his 50s with no previous finance experience: http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/d334ed82-328d-11e4-a5a2-00144feabdc0.htm…
I know a few PhDs who did it in their 30s...
On another note, the oldest person who was still working on Wall Street died just the other day. He was 109.
