Advice on trading career for a undergrad student
Hello, I am a bit confused, hope you could help me out, I would love a career as a trader,
What suggestions could you give on where to start, I a currently majoring in business administration(Freshmen year), I would greatly appreciate any advice
Thnx
I'd suggest a different major (CS, finance, econ, etc) take a look at this thread https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/college-major-for-sales-and-trad…
if you can, double major in 1) economics 2) computer science /engineering
Also, ideally, transfer to a target school for your sophomore or junior year (this will increase the statistical chances of getting a full time job opportunity). The target schools get 90% of internships at the BB firms...and 90% of full time offers goto those with previous internships. Life is a numbers game....do what you can to skew the numbers in your favor. For example, BB firms love MIT and UPenn (Wharton)...NYU, Columbia, Stanford, the ivies, Duke, etc....
Also, add something "unique and interesting" to your CV...something to gain the attention of the person going thru hundreds of resumes...you want to stick out...in a good way.
