Chimps and Chimpettes,
I’ve worked for a couple of wealth management firms now as a career changer and while I love finance I don’t like this position. I don’t feel well suited for what is effectively a sales position and I’m not good at it. I’d love to get in to a role where I could use my brain more and value companies etc. My former life was in sports and I don’t have a degree which I realize is a tough hurdle to get past but I’d love to hear what you guys think about my prospects of getting a job in equity research or as an analyst somewhere? I guess I’d like to know if you think I need to get a degree, or CFA and what my best course of action is? I’m fairly close to Chicago but closer to Milwaukee. Thanks for any insight.

ER is sales
I’d define it more as corporate access/c suite fluffer or IB consultant, but you’re not wrong
More surprised you got a CFA and a job w/o a degree tbh.
