Hey guys,
A genuine, humble guy could use some of your advice right about now. I graduated from a non-target (think Penn State, Udel, Maryland) with a 3.5 GPA (3.8 major GPA) this past spring. Recently relocated to take a position in a "two year" MO/BO corporate finance rotational program at a BB and I'm absolutely hating the mind-numbing work.I took this job because I had a lot on my plate senior year dealing with family issues, a full class schedule, and studying for the CFA, so I didn't have as much time to network as I would have liked to, and this coupled with the abysmal FO OCR my school offers I was dead out of luck. I have a decent resume (leadership position in university investment fund, ER financial modeling internship for a startup, PWM internship at a BB) and I just found out yesterday that I passed the CFA, just signed up for L2 June 2017. I'm very markets-oriented and would love to work in S&T, ER, or AM, determined that IB is not the promised land for me. So my questions to you guys are: Should I start pounding the pavement networking now for FT 2017, and not give a shit about the two year program? Would leaving this program early burn a bridge with the FO of this BB in NY even though I'm at a satellite office?
Greatly appreciate any advice you guys could offer :)
Go for it. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Just make sure you understand that it is going to be very challenging to move from back/middle office to a front office position. Good luck.
