Want to Ace Your Interviews?
First, You Must Know the Secret Code…
Investment Banking is still one of the most sought after careers straight out of college. You know it. We know it. Case closed.
Not only does it offer money and big bonuses, but it’s also THE key stepping-stone for your career wherever you want to go: Private Equity, Hedge Funds or higher up the ladder in IB.
But breaking in is much harder than you think…
… because Wall Street guards its secrets like Fort Knox its gold.
Landing an Investment Banking job is not about the skills to DO the job… But about the skills to GET the job.
Two DIFFERENT pairs of shoes!
The untold truth is that everything you’ve learned so far is practically useless when it comes to interviewing. It’s a whole new skill set…
- Technical knowledge alone? Not good enough.
- A high GPA? Not good enough.
- Great connections? Not good enough.
- And a CV full of high-profile internships? Not good enough.
Your interviewer’s job isn’t to find the best candidates… But to eliminate the wannabes. They’ll stress test you. Confuse you. They will do everything to break you.
- You will be grilled technically…
- You will be hit with complex brain teasers designed to trick you…
- You will be tested for your knowledge of the industry and their bank…
- You will be examined closely on your ability to function under pressure and think on your feet…
They’ll pick you apart to see what you’re made of:
- Your body language and tone of voice…
- Your character and confidence…
- Your presentation skills and presence in front of clients and colleagues…
- Your ability to both lead and follow at the appropriate time…
- And they’ll decide if you have the proper “manners” to make the cut…
In short, the Investment Banking Interview process is grueling. You will be eaten up alive if you don’t know what you’re doing and are just “winging it”.
There is Only one Way: Learn From Those who Walked Your Path before
The best way to learn anything is to simply follow the footsteps of those who done it successfully. Like learning from a big brother, who has successfully navigated this process, landed a lucrative offer and is now on the other side.
Only then will you know the “secret code” of IB interviews to ace your interviews and beat your competition: the thousands of straight-A finance enthusiast who are willing to grind it out.
And once you have this knowledge, the gauntlet will be like a walk in the park.
Others are left confused and intimidated, you’ll be calm, cool and collected because it’s an open book test for you.
While others are cramming last minute, you are reviewing your game plan for the third time. All questions in place. That’s your edge!
And while others end up working in back offices earning half your salary, you’ll be climbing the Investment Banking ladder.
