You're a final year econ student from a non-target with no internship. How would you go about getting an investment role?
I'm a final year econ student from a good (but non-target) university with no internships or work-experience.
What are some practical routes for me to get a job in investment/asset management or equity research?
Here are some possible routes I've thought of:
Route A: Apply for internships now for summer 2016 start --> Complete CFA in my 2016/17 gap year --> Apply for Grad schemes to start in summer 2017.
Route B: Apply for generic non-investment grad schemes now for summer 2016 start --> Complete IMC while gaining professional (non-investment) experience --> Apply for investment role after 1-2 years.
What are your thoughts on the 2 possible routes? How would you personally improve them?
anyone?
Route A
Why would you even consider B?
