In the case where you can't land a job in capital markets... which of these two are better options specifically in regards to building experience to landing a capital markets job in the future.
Option 1:
Sales Assistant for a wealth management division of a major bank
Option 2:
An administrative spot in back office of a major bank
Option 1
Sales.
The general rule for finance is anything that puts you in front of clients or their money is better than something that doesn't. At the low level, of course.
Option 1, but you see if you can do better than both of those.
I've actually networked with every boutique possible in my city, had a few interviews but didn;t lock anything down unfortunately.
The unemployment gig really blows, and i'm losing my mind studying for the cfa all day everyday. I figure get a crappy job for now to keep busy while i study and continue to network and apply for capital markets jobs.
I know a lot of people on here wouldn't be down for such an idea but i'm pretty sure its easier to get a job once your already working rather than unemployed especially for a new grad.
I appreciate the feedback gents, do you guys think once i get CFA level 1 under my belt and some work experience in WM, I stand a better chance in landing a spot in S&T or Research?
