advise me, for I need direction
Hi. I am a junior at DePaul University. Where should I start for a career in sales & trading? I'm guessing I will have to go to graduate school in order to land a job in trading. Unless I meet someone who can push my resume. But anyways, where are some good areas to start working to advance to sales & trading? Thank You.
If you miss the S&T analyst position, you can always start at in a risk/MO position and try to work your way into a sales or trading assistant role. And after a few years if you see it as a dead end (or haven't met anyone that can push your resume) you could check out grad school.
Thanks for the reply. What is MO? What other positions are there available that would greatly help me enter sales & trading? Thank You.
anyone?
mortgage origination
this and anything in middle office is a good, medium-shot bet for you
Origination is a great start - pricing loans, looking at loan docs etc...within 1-2 years of doing that, you should be moving on to the securities side.
What banks should I look into for this position? Do they have internships for this position? I don't care how long it takes me to get into trading, one way or another I will get there. Thanks.
You're in Chicago, so you have a lot of options...Google top 25 mortgage originators...ideas include BankOne, Countrywide and LaSalle/ABNAmro off the top of my head. RFC, USbank, Wells, M&I are some other ideas.
Thanks skiloa for the response. I have another question. What about working overseas? I was born and raised in India and am fluent in Hindi, and Gujurati. Would I have a chance working overseas for a bank? Thanks.
Well, I'm not from overseas, so I'm not really sure...If they have thriving mortgage and/or loan businesses, then maybe. Otherwise, no.
I was talking about IB/Sales & Trading. Mortgage loan business is out of question for India. I will take a look at it. Thx
