Career path advices
Hello everyone, I'm currently enrolled in a French university as an undergraduate and I'm graduating in 2023.
I'm considering applying for a PhD in Economics after my bachelor.
I would like to know if a IB/PE internship would be a plus on my cv. Indeed, I'm able to applying for 2 Off-cycle, in 2022 and 2023 (I'm doing internship this year between May and August in a young company, non finance related).
The fact that I'm from a French University is against me, especially because I don't have a lot of alumni in the industry. Should I network now for 2022? Does the fact that I'll attend a PhD could be a problem (I mean the banks mostly want future employees as interns).
Thank you for your time and your attention, and all the best.
(Ps:does the Cambridge advanced diploma in economics have some value, I'm considering applying to this and attending the MphEconReseach, then the PhD in economics here)
Work experience is good but academics is 100 times more important for PhD. I think that work experience is good because you will have a tangible experience of what you want to do in the future, i.e. you are really young and should not set things in the stone that you want to do a PhD.
