resume and career question

hi all, Thanks in advance for your help.

I graduated in May 2009 with finance and supply chain management from top 20 business program. I have been working at a wealth management firm for around 9 months, and I would like to get into investment banking or corporate finance related job. problem i have is basically i only work for my job for 3 months as a full-time. So, applying a new job is somewhat risky I am thinking. please let me know what you guys think.

Thanks,

If you have the opportunity to interview, I would take advantage of it. I know seniors who graduated and did one-year research / fellowship opportunities, and during that year continued to use their university recruiting services to interview for other jobs. I suggest you do the same if banking is what you want to do. Though, keep in mind that you will have to answer the question of why you didn't do banking in the first place.
