Just another guy looking to be a banker.

Hi everyone.

I recently graduated from University, and am in that awful position of looking for jobs in the banking sector. After having followed WSO for a long time, I decided to introduce myself.

I'm not entirely sure what to say on here apart from that I'm just another guy looking to be a banker, coming from a non-target Uni, and actually have an interest in the markets (unlike the majority of my friends who are following the big bucks).

Well, I would love for a few people to introduce themselves to me. And also, I need 10 bananas before I can send messages to anyone - so please help me out!

Thanks and enjoy the rest of your day :)

Rules to success 1. Don't be a b*tch 2. Act like you were born to be rich

This applies to almost any situation.
Your attitude needs some reconfiguration.
Flip it 180 degrees, show your confidence. Talk on your accomplishments. Put forth real evidence, that you comprehend investments. Demonstrate some sentience.

Otherwise... if you want an occupation then give some stimulation go down, on some clown under his desk be sure to clean the mess when he blows on your chest. Suck it up, oh that's what it means Soon you'll be one of us coke fiends.

If sucking D ain't your style and you want your resume at the top of the pile show your good side Suit lookin' sharp, face shaven clean cop that interview, it's you're time to glean.

TLDR: This bleakness, this weakness that you project means you need more time to self-reflect.
