Career Guidance to get into UK IB
I will be graduating this summer with a law degree in Europe (non-target as fuck). My final goal is to get into IB/PE in London (M&A) but I don't have a direct shot. My current 4 offers after graduating are:
a) Compliance at a BB in London (pro: easier to network, contra: it's compliance so 0 relevance for IB).
b) Audit at Big 4 in East Europe (pro: learning accounting, contra: East Europe).
c) Banking & Finance Paralegal in Benelux (pro: learning the legal side of finance, contra: harder to lateral because it's law).
d) Corporate Law in East Europe (pro: learning the legal side of M&A, contra: East Europe).
I still have the chance to pursue a Master's Degree but wouldn't put to much faith on it because my GPA is around 8 on a scale of 1 - 10 so no chances of getting into a target.
So, if you were in my position, how would you do it?
Apply for an MSc in LSE, Imperial, UCL and as a last option Kings and then Cass. Then apply for m&a internships and you should be fine
