My life as an investment banker

hi buddy....

bro,i always aspire to be an investment banker...and i was thinkng totally different from the stuff what u have shared...what i feel different jobs demand different attitudes from the employees...and afteral sycophancy is a thing which is hardly absent anywhere...it lies from small school to the top level hierarchy of any company...it is really sucking the modern industries....
buddy,can u help me...u tel me do these investment banks hire simple B.Com graduates??i know this is not the thread to share al these..bt i have this query and i believe u r the right person to answer this ques...
and yes if u really think u dont wanna remain into this industry then do fast and get into the industry where ur interest lies...
so al da best..and wish u very happy new year...

Almost a similar opinion or exactly the same was expressed by my cousin and his friend who are at Stern and Tuck schools. Both of them did their internship with a Prominent European Investment Bank in tokyo and both of them regret their decision to choose this job over an analyst profile offered by Bain Consulting.

So please be well informed before making any decisions regarding jobs and career.

bye.

i dont know man..it doesnt sound too bad to me...i'd still want to be in ur shoes..lol

That was really insightful.......

Friends,

Myself Abhijeet. I need help.. Its VERY URGENT. I will be very very grateful to anybody who replies to my question.

I have around 9 years exp (pre and post MBA combined, pre-4, post-5) in FINANCE and ACCOUNTING. I am currently working in Genpact as Assistant Manager in F&A; domain. I got a call from UBS (Now cognizant) in INVESTMENT BANKING domain (PRODUCT CONTROL) . Now, I dont have any INVESTMENT BANKING exp. I got the call since I have 9 yrs Reconciliations exp in F&A; domain. They wanted a guy who has good exp in Reconciliations. UBS/ COGNIZANT said that they will give me PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE if I get selected. Now , my CTC is 5 lacs ( fixed). Guys I want a suggestion from you. Since I have 9 yrs exp and an MBA ( ICFAI Business School) and CFA ( Level -1) from ICFAI and my CTC is very low. How much should I ask as salary????? Kindly advice. Please GUYS HELP ME..ITS A REQUEST TO EVERYBODY IN THIS FORUM . I will be highly indebted to him/her who advises me.
