New(-ish) here, would love some advice!
Hey everybody! I'm a recent graduate of the University of Toronto. Unfortunately, due to thinking I wanted to be a lawyer for the majority of my life and then realizing my last year I don't, I've graduated with a degree in History and Philosophy. Not only that, but my cumulative GPA isn't awful, but it isn't stellar either. I had an awful first two years due to external factors, but did well in my last two years (3.8 and 4.0 respectively). I don't fully know what I want to do career-wise, though I've been leaning heavily towards investments or finance in general (And, full honesty, money is a fairly big driving factor).
My questions are largely: How screwed am I in actually getting a good finance job, given my degree and GPA situation? What can I do to make myself look good to employers? What skills should I learn? Is there any specific career track I should look at that gives an easier entry to people with completely irrelevant schooling so I can eventually switch over?
Thanks, everyone!
