Starting career at a FOF doing Investment Research or a propriety networks firm (like Guidepoint Global) research associate?
I am just graduating college and have found I am very interested in pursuing a career in buyside or sellside equity research. But, I have found it to be difficult to find/get a job doing equity research right out of college. Thus I am currently looking at starting a career at a FOF doing Investment Research or a propriety networks firm (like Guidepoint Global) as a research associate before going back to school to get an MBA degree. I was wondering which opportunity would help me get into an MBA program and help me make the jump into equity research after completing my MBA?
