Was set on IBD but now thinking on S&T
Quick background.
I am doing a MSc Accounting in the UK, and previously have worked full-time for BIG4 audit and TSA, also have done a macroeconomic research internship and an investment banking internship.
I'm currently in the process of applying for ibd jobs all around Europe, the BBs didn't want me but I'm in the interview rounds with 2 continental investment banks, so on the surface it looks like its going great but this year, I have been quite a bit of reading especially on the global macro, rates, currency fields, I've also started trading (on paper so far) the macro products and I see the whole field as much more intellectual than IBD. At the same time, I have interviews in IBD and my background suits it much better.
So my question is if I wanted to still try and get into S&T this late in the year (BBs are done recruiting), what companies should I look into? And if I cannot get an S&T place at a bank right away, what other career paths could be more attainable now that could lead me to S&T later?
I don't have an economics degree, so macroeconomic research falls out as well.
bump - all ideas would be appreciated
Focus on boutiques or even smaller shops where you can come in with a non-traditional background. Be willing to take a trading assistant, sales assistant etc. type role
Um. Ha.
S&T does not have as many boutiques as IBD. Any good B plans I could consider to open the path to S&T later on?
You might consider roles in Private Wealth Mgmt., preferably with a salary though, i.e. Asst.
Thanks, that's good advice.
