Best way to get started as a high schooler/college freshman?
I'm currently a high school senior who is able to enter college to major in Data Science and Financial Economics. I hope to one day work in hedge fund management, but I want to explore different financial sectors/jobs also. Would any company hire me as an intern being that I have 0 experience and little applicable skills (my only conceivable edge is that I'm going to Columbia in the fall). Or should I spend this summer trying to develop/hone the skills needed? If so, what are some things I should learn or courses I should take?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
You should relax and enjoy it because it's the last free summer you'll get.
Agree with the previous poster. Relax and make a plan for next summer to land an intern position on the principal investing side at a large bank. Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs are still very active on the principal side and have many prop mandates in their Merchant Banking / Investment Management divisions (private equity, tactical value, etc.)
