bullbythehornswhy are you 2012 CFA candidate if your seeking an IB job?

Because I was a career switcher.

Unless you sat for and passed level 1 its kind of irrelevant right? If you did pass level 1 I would stick with it man. You should be able to land a solid AM or ER gig with level 1 knocked out.
