Practical Advice Needed
Good morning,
As a senior enrolled at a liberal arts college in Pennsylvania, USA, I am seeking guidance on navigating the financial industry and identifying a career path that aligns with my skills and aspirations. While I recognize the inherent value of any position within the industry, I am eager to gain insights from seasoned professionals to explore roles that resonate with my unique attributes and persona.
As an international student with a multicultural upbringing spanning Croatia, Switzerland, England, and the USA, I possess proficiency in three languages and excel in interpersonal communication. My background as a former competitive soccer player has instilled in me qualities such as resilience, discipline, and meticulous attention to detail. Transitioning from athletics to academia, I have approached my studies with the same level of dedication and passion, now channeling my ambition towards making a significant impact in the financial sector.
My overarching vision is to contribute to an international investment fund, be it within a private or public firm or sovereign wealth fund (SWF). I am particularly drawn to the art of wealth accumulation and financial security, with a keen interest in alternative investments such as infrastructure projects, brick-and-mortar businesses, and tangible appreciating assets. Unlike traditional avenues like equities, fixed income, or money markets, I am captivated by opportunities that offer tangible and enduring value.
Throughout the past year, I have diligently explored various avenues within the financial industry, ranging from startups to venture capital (VC), private equity (PE), mergers and acquisitions (M&A), investment banking (IB), and accounting. My quest has evolved as I delved deeper into the intricacies of each domain, ultimately leading me to investigate opportunities in trading. Recent readings, including "The World For Sale," have underscored the shifting landscape of global markets, with a heightened focus on climate change and social equity. In light of these developments, I am eager to receive professional guidance on the evolving trajectory of the financial industry (CBDCs, blockchains, and AI/technology) and discern roles that resonate with my personal aspirations and strengths.
I greatly appreciate any insights and advice you can offer in this regard.
Thank you sincerely.
