Do NOT invest in China stocks and china mutual funds. They are all FAKE! They do NOT have real companies back in China. And China stocks often advertise that they will give 10-15 percent return on your investments to Trick you. Don't fall for it. They are all Pyramid schemes. There are sooooooo many companies in HK, Taiwan, Japan, South korea, and Europe that lose all their money to China fake companies!!

this takes me back to my consulting days at a big4. even though I came from almost no money and was thankful to get a job right after the '08 crash, I quit after 10 months even though I really enjoyed the knowledge I was gathering. No matter how much you think you lacked as a child or how much you want to make your parents proud, the impact on your overall health can't be underestimated. I just see no point in going through so much shit with so many assholes (industry is well known for turning decent people into monsters) almost every single hour of the day just to start over again in 5-10 years time in another industry whether it's another job or a business. There were so many occasions where clients we took out for drinks fell asleep on some couch somewhere on the premises or our VPs just napped in between drinks. Let's not forget the sexual harassment you need to navigate through as a man/woman from mature women and men. oh believe me it happens...a lot. They're as stressed out as you are. 2 colleagues died while I was there. They were both 24. Sleep depravation and too many energy drinks. Their hearts just stopped. There are plenty of jobs that pay 1/3 less where you can enjoy spending it on weekends. I always hear "yeah but I get to retire at 30". Nah bro after you made it, at 30 you want to spend it all because you lived under a neon light for a decade, and what happens is you end up spending it on a lot of stupid shit. Now I'm no NGO employee, I like money, money makes life easier but there's a line where it really doesn't. Find a sweet spot...or don't. To each their own

@@yandhi4507 I moved into software development. I loved coding and taught myself from a very young age without thinking I'd ever build a career on it. It was a fun hobby for me. I was lucky to have had an in demand skill when I quit. I didn't quit thinking I'd switch industries, I quit having 0 clue what I'd do next. All I did for the first month was sleep and tried getting back in shape for another 3 months. I was burnt out. I then thought "hmm maybe I should try this". I currently develop products and run research for an exchange with a team of quants and data scientists which eventually get sold to IBs and funds. The work is very interesting and work life balance is fantastic. Base pay is great, bonuses are good (not IB absurd levels) but I do get to enjoy it with my family and I actually enjoy coming to work every day. I never wanted to leave the industry, just that lifestyle so I switched from creating powerpoints with products to creating the products. There's always a way.

My question is when getting a job is everything in your job relies on everything you learn in college or do they train you and teach you everything for the specific job. Thank you and would be greatly appreciated for your response.

@@ALLEN-dh5mi Depends on the college, depends on your degree and depends on the quality of education in your country. Graduates with STEM degrees are better prepared on average anywhere in the world than any other graduates just because of the nature of the domain. Graduates from top schools have better (again on average) curriculums and better professors so there's that. A Finance degree is very broad. You do some stats, some economics, some of this, some of that. By the third year you should have an idea of what you like and pick any optional courses that you think would fit your future career and be an A+ student at least in those. Once you get a job, the real world starts and depending on how technical your job is, college might have been more or less useful. University is what you make of it. I didn't go to a fancy school but it had a great library and I made good use of it. I studied my ass off but I enjoyed the domain. I still refer to my 2nd year econometrics books at my job, almost a decade later. For a STEM degree, I'd say college would give you 30-40% of your domain knowledge with your employer covering the rest. In Finance, unless it's statistics, financial engineering etc., you'd be lucky if you hit 10%. If you find yourself not reading the extra bibliography at the end of the book chapters and just want to finish college for the sake of finishing it then you've picked the wrong domain. It's one thing to make a mistake and waste 3 years of your life, it's another to waste your entire life doing something you find unappealing.

I work at a securities company but in risk management division. I like the job and the working hour. The retail division (bond and equity analyst, sales, trader, brokerage) work longer hours than me and I think that's already too much. And then I found out that the IB guys work WAY LONGER hours than the retail div. It's insane and inhumane. My good friends are mostly from IB div and theyre about to quit (im gonna lose friends). I was offered to transfer to IB division because of my skills and work ethique but I refused. I'll never be an inv. Banker. My life is worth more than any amount of money.

very few people can actually do that and that's why only a few can get into investment banking. You need to be very fast with precision and being able to finish vast amount of work in a very short period of time. And you have to do it over and over again until your big boss says okay. To break it down, you really need to be a master of Excel sheet, financial accounting, model expert and overall a lot expertise in one specific industry, anyway JP is specialized in M&A.

Good day sounds like a corporate nightmare fueled with unnecessary time wasting with having you, “in the office”. All the things you did sounds like you could to that from home, but instead they make you fiddle for 8-10 hours when really about half of that is time actually spent doing work. But then the higher up, “gets to spend time with their family”, while you do all the work. Bad day sounds like you are you’re associate are essentially the backbone of the actual work being done, and then some measly higher up probably just waits for you to finish your work or they force you to work faster, as you stay up till 4 am skipping meals, with 3 hours of sleep but those above you probably get a comfy 8 hours, and come into the office whenever they feel. What a hell.

When you first started, how did you feel with the modelling where you wouldnt know how to do something, did your associate give good guidance or? you would just ask some other analysts
@rareliquid
@rareliquid 3 жыл бұрын
It depended on the associate but they were some that would provide really great guidance while others wouldn’t. Usually after getting some guidance from the associate I would do my best to build the model myself by looking at other previous similar models. Then when I had questions I would ask my associate or other analysts. Also would watch KZfaq tutorial videos sometimes lol

There are a lot of inefficiencies in the process. Most of the results are boilerplates and yet they require approval from far too many. Yes there are some unique dynamics between deals, but if you can't trust your lower level analysts, then your training, process, and protocols are poor. Too often it is assumed that bigger is better; three guys sitting on cinder blocks with Excel and PowerPoint on their laptops can handle a billion dollar deal.

1) The company really supports internal mobility if that's something you're looking for (i.e. I had multiple colleagues who went to different offices across the world) 2) The largest bank in the world with one of the biggest balance sheets meaning that the company is involved in almost every single major deal one way or another The beset thing to really do though is to talk to people who worked at the firm so you can talk about the firm's culture and saying you talked to someone who worked at the firm provides your answer with more credibility
