This all sounds like a lot of hard work. I'm doing Economics and will do a postgrad at Bristol University. Is it really worth it?
-
Do you get to live in a nice house for all your hard work? Does this job pay the bills?

Thanks for this video do you have any tips/advice on interviews competency based interviews? Got the grades, confident but don't have contacts but fingers crossed somethings comes up soon

finally a straight up video from a normal dude about investment banking lol. Other videos make me feel that something is trying to be sold, but this was really helpful. Thanks.
I have two questions, how much does the name of the unversity you graduate from affect the likelihood of being hired? And also, what's the best way to start networking and getting contacts?
Dan, you have it nice... I am an investment banker and never have I ever left the office at 8 or 10. We leave at 2am-4am, and 2 days a week an all nighter. Please send the right message to appliers, its not fun working with someone who doesnt want to be there at late ours...

@nuncadelosnuncas10 Hi Thanks for the comment, do you enjoy it? We are writing a book on investment banking on how to get in the industry, if you would like to contribute that would be great. The purpose is to give young people insight into what its really like. Thanks Antony.

Thanks for your comment appreciate the feedback. I will get Dan to comment direct, but in my experience its all about passion, determination and hard work!!
1, Have a clear goal on what you want. Do you want to be in investment banking?
2, get a mentor, someone who is further down the track than you are who will guide you through the pitfalls. Will try and get Dan to speak to you.
3, If you achieve the first two then then its all about action. If you are passionate you will attain your goals!
