Shownotes Transcript

Breaking into investment banking from a non-target school is absolutely possible but you need to be strategic.

In this episode, we walk you through exactly what it takes: from building a standout resume to gaining relevant finance experience and getting heavily involved in leadership roles.

We also dive into the importance of networking smarter and harder, since you won’t have the same alumni connections as target-school students.

We also cover how to dominate both technical and behavioral interviews and why starting early makes all the difference.

If you’re serious about breaking in, this is the blueprint.
