If you're wondering whether a 100-hour work week is true, the answer is: not really 🤷♂️ The actual hours are more likely to be around 60-80 hours 🙌 There are weeks where you might work 100 hours, but it's not as often as you think and depends on the group 👩💻 🚨 If you're even remotely interested in working in Investment Banking, you need to start your preparation early because recruitment begins earlier each year ☀️ For example, if you're a 2027 grad, recruitment for the 2026 summer internship will start this fall 🍂 👊 We know the preparation can be intense and confusing, so if you need guidance throughout the process, join the WSO Academy waitlist now - https://lnkd.in/gN9yH8gM #investmentbanking #wallstreet #financecareers

Fun, flexible, and... investment management? These aren’t three words I would have ever put together. More because I didn’t know investment management was completely different from investment banking until a month ago, lol! But after hearing Lewis Cheetham’s experience on Fidelity International’s Equity Research graduate scheme, I got a bit of career FOMO. I mean who wouldn’t want a job that’s fun, flexible and get’s me in my rich man bag (hello, signing bonus)?💼💸 I could go on but I won’t… at least not in this post 😝.

"Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity", except that it is not. What seems like a dream may unravel when reality sets in. #GenZ tends to glorify their job/career. But there is no glory at all. Every job comes with pain and joy. I have had mentees who secured coveted jobs in seemingly prestigious European and American banks, only to feel disillusioned a couple of years later. Having what you want and wanting what you have are two very different things. It also begs the following questions. Amidst all those job cuts, why are they tripping over themselves to join banking industry? Are they not concerned about future retrenchment? Are there no other industries worthy of their time? If you are an #undergraduate, I like to hear your views.

Singapore’s aspiring bankers are going a step further by postponing their graduation by months or years, to gain more direct exposure to the finance sector via internships.

A Summer of Growth and New Experiences 🌟 This summer has been an enriching journey filled with growth, learning, and new opportunities. Here's a snapshot of my recent endeavors: Professional Experience: I engaged in a new internship focused on credit in banking. This role has provided me with practical insights into the financial industry, and I am excited about the knowledge and skills I am acquiring. Academic Challenge: I embraced the challenge of enrolling in multiple subjects this term, pushing myself to manage a demanding academic load. Balancing this with my internship has been a rewarding test of my time management and organizational skills. Key Learning: One of the key lessons I’ve learned is the importance of adaptability and continuous learning. Whether it's adjusting to new responsibilities at my internship or mastering complex subjects at university, staying flexible and open to new information has been crucial. I am grateful for the support of my mentors and peers during this time and look forward to continuing this journey of professional and personal development. #Summer2024 #InternshipExperience #Banking #CreditAnalysis #ContinuousLearning #UniversityLife #ProfessionalGrowth
