From 10 rejections to 1 dream investment banking internship
“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
WTF do you know about hedging with derivatives? That was my first thought.
My second thought is that you're grasping at straws. Focus on career paths within your grasp. You've sent out your resume 100 times and haven't gotten anywhere... Let the facts speak for themselves. Keep in mind, investment bank recruiting is designed to keep people out, not to take a chance on somebody.
I don't have any relevant work experience to hedging risk yet. But I studied how to hedging risk( using options, Forward, and Swap). I learned how to use Binomial model and Black-Scholes model pricing option. I also learned basic knowledge about Exotic options( Asian, Barrier).
I understand investment bank basically isn't an option for me, so I am also looking for any company(local bank/airline/oil&gas/insurance...etc) risk/hedging department that might relative to Derivative product /hedging. I don't mind its a supporting role or any position as long as its relevant.
honesty, I can even take a non-pay internship if its relevant.
I just don't know where to find them.
Great advice. +sb
