Need Career Advice, please help!
Hey guys,
I'm new to the WSO community but I just want to say it's been a super helpful resource. Anyway, I wanted to get opinions on which career path I should take. Just a little background on myself- I went to a nationally ranked high school and did well. I'm now top 10% (3.8 GPA) of my class (granted my major is said to be "easy") at a mid-level ivy. I'm not "scared" of numbers, but can't see myself plugging at excel 14 hours a day. I don't think I'm cut out for the IB lifestyle, I want to have enough free time to enjoy time with my family and pursue hobbies. I want to start somewhere in the $100k+ range all in, but don't need 7 figure exit opps. I'm involved in Greek Life and a Varsity athlete (did not help with admissions). I'm passionate/competitive when I work and see myself as very personable. My Dad is a very successful salesperson in another industry, and I think I'd be great in equity sales. I also see equity research interesting, and to my knowledge (which is limited) there is a lot of communication and people interaction on the job. Let me know where you see me at, I'm trying to narrow down the internship search a little bit. Thanks for the help!
Just a heads up, ER can be just as bad as IBD for "plugging at excel", especially during earning season.
Sounds like you would enjoy sales. Give it a try.
