First, you need a background, if your own ability is average, especially in finance. Then your direction to enter these companies is administrative assistance, such as collecting information, printing documents and making coffee. Even these jobs are very popular, and you can't get in if you want. If you have education, family background and social connections, it will be relatively easy, because some people were born in Rome.
Second, you don't need background, but you need strength. If the position you are running for is a highly technical position such as investment and trading, then you don't need any background, because your business ability is above everything else, which requires very strong professional ability, and even some certificates of investment competitions can get interviews and trial opportunities. You should have comprehensive financial knowledge, not the kind you learned, but also have enough investment experience. It is better to have experienced economic ups and downs, because they are not willing to spend a long time training new people and are willing to spend high prices to tap existing talents. So there is still a good chance to work hard.
There are mainly two kinds of people who enter the investment bank, and they have a good relationship or a good relationship.
Good relationship. Not much to say. Their main performance is:
1, prestigious school+prestigious school master. Take undergraduate courses as an example, with the top ten universities in China as the main ones.
2, excellent grades, such as the first-class scholarship during college.
3. Rich internship experience. It is best to have internship experience in finance, auditing, investment research, data, etc. of the big four, top consulting companies, other brokers, or well-known enterprises.
4. major, STEM, economy, finance, accounting.
Suggestions according to your own situation:
1. Internship (the most important thing)
Resume must have internship experience in investment banking and brokerage. Let's start with small brokers and see if we can find the relationship between seniors and sisters. If you choose to promote yourself, don't submit your resume yourself. Be sure to remember that it is equivalent to wasting your own channels to promote yourself.
Prepare for the interview
If you are not ready, you are ready to fail. There is a comprehensive market research report during the interview, which is a good plus item, at least making the interviewer feel that he is a conscientious person. You can refer to Chen Pengfei, where college students made a market survey report. The salary rose directly from 5000 to 18000, 12, and the boss was vying for it. If you don't know how to do market research, you can get information.
Finally:
Focus on job-hunting consultation and teach you to find a good company.
If you think it is helpful, you can give me a compliment.
If you need me to help you choose an internship institution, you can poke me and chat.
I wish everyone can find their favorite internships and jobs and study abroad smoothly. If you have any questions (resume revision, internship promotion, school recruitment/full-time employment, application for studying abroad), you can also come to consult.
