Switching to IB as a University Junior

你好,

目前正在经历中期危机。关于我的一些背景:学习CS, Statistics, Mathematics @ a HYPSM school. Done a little bit of everything - published deep learning research in natural language processing, developed software at both a startup and a FAANG company, worked @ a macro hedge fund as an investment analyst, and working as a quantitative researcher @ a statistical套利公司summer. Asian male, 4.0 GPA, 99th percentile SAT, full graduate courseload. Enrolled in concurrent masters' degree program.

与我的朋友和家人进行了一些谈话IB/PE并意识到我可能想进入IB/PEafter graduation - parents have been pushing me to take the more traditional finance route the past year because of higher comp, better exits and career path (parents seem to think quantitative research hits a dead end). Issue is, I haven't taken a single course in Economics since high school (I've done shit like Econometrics, Investment Science, Stochastic Modeling, etc, but not particularly relevant toIB...)我知道如何use Excel很好,是一个快速学习者 - 完全愿意掌握面试所需的技能。我原定于2023年毕业,但我目前的计划是为硕士学位多花一年的时间,然后今年申请投资银行实习。bob竞技体育游戏我最近越来越多地考虑这一点 - 这个开关甚至值得我这个学位吗?如果是这样,我可以使用哪些资源来尽快陷入困bob电子竞技大赛境?我父母是对的IB/PE路线的收入超过量子路线?是否可以在银行 - > Portfolio Manager进行Quant/Macro Analyst-> VP?

请对我诚实 - 我的感觉不会受到伤害。

Thanks.

在您的背景下,我认为您将成为许多银行的非常有说服力的候选人。我有很多朋友一直专门为英语 /文学而主修,并在惊人的银行登陆了景点 - 只要您拥有批判性思维技能,具有强大的沟通能力,拥有良好的职业道德,并且很细致。

如果你认为IBis right for you, there are plenty of resources out there (BIWS向导, 400 Questions Gude,WSO指南等)。现在最重要的是,只要与尽可能多的人建立联系。我相信有很多人从您的催眠学校毕业IBand would be happy to talk to you about the industry.

Per your discussions with other industry professionals, I'd collect their opinions as to when you should apply / what your specific timeline would be considering that you are taking a year to do a Master's degree. My guess would be

Summer 2022: Land some internship finance-related / recruit for Summer '23IBinternships

Summer 2023:IB夏季分析师实习

2024年夏:从硕士学位毕业后全职开始

如果您在大学期间使用相同的职业道德在招聘 /网络过程中,那么毫无疑问,您会降落在顶部BB银行。祝您好运

不要听他们的话,这是BS。定量/技术工作是未来,更有趣 - 帮个忙并保持这一道路。

让我问您这个问题,以帮助您确定是否不相信:您是否觉得自己对世界其他地区的比较优势是智商还是销售?因为银行和关联最终是后者。

你可以说MBBis IQ, sales, or neither?

一般而言,咨询在开始时是智商,主要是销售,随着您的排名升高(几乎相同IBfor broad strokes purposes). At my old consulting firm there was a top performer who literally had no idea what was going on (e.g. what work our team was doing), but put together entire speeches just based on buzz words and vague analyses on what a company's pain points were. She was attractive and not all that bright, but consistently sold work. Moral of the story is that if your social skills are weak or you have a face for radio,IB/如果您聪明,咨询将不会长期支付最高的股息。

Toll Ride, 你怎么看?以下评论:

If you stick with the quant world I promise that you will have a much better life, because you'll actually have a life, while making just as much, if not more money, than yourIB/PE同行。我个人认为,在金钱和WLB方面,金融的量化子部门是最好的,但是很多人几乎不足以进入。说他的补偿被提升了肠易激综合症Comp受到了增强,即使他每周只工作35个小时,而Ibers则工作了90,而这直接从本科生出来。

无花果牛顿, 你怎么看?以下评论:

FWIW Two Sigma等人 - > ML/AI启动 - > Multi -Bn出口管道非常强大。人们喜欢说Quant Comp相对于传统金融具有上限,但我认为他们低估了您作为具有尖端技术技能的人的选择性
