Starting a career at the SEC?
Random post but has anyone thought about starting a career at the SEC or some other regulatory bodies? Would your experience there make you more marketable down the line? What's the pay and entry requirements there?

salaries are above, not bad for a law enforcement agency, especially if you go the legal route. job safety surely is better than in a bank?
you will have better odds in getting to regulatory/compliance and anti-fraud teams within banks after working there.
The SEC is full of narc losers. Don't join.
no wonder they can't screen out all the fraudster Chinese companies listed on NYSE/NASDAQ lol
Axe Cap exits I’ve heard.

It only makes you marketable for compliance related roles. Most of the roles at the SEC require a law degree, so you might be somewhat limited by your finance degree. I think a bank's compliance department will pay you more and offer you a better trajectory upwards vs working at a government agency. Government agencies are filled with bureaucracies, making it hard to climb, and climbing is also largely dependent on how well your supervisors like you. You might become jaded once you realize the SEC doesn't have the budget to do anything, and that you're not doing gods work.
Also should mention government agency does not mean work life balance. There are groups within the gov where they work you hard, and the pay that you get is just pathetic. I can imagine the SEC is one of those groups, depending on where you are in the organization.
They have a soild honors internship program in multiple U.S. cities for Undergraduats. However, it's unpaid, but looks great on your resume. I'm currently in the process of applying. I'd recommend it. Got nothing to lose.
