Edition).Are you acollege student who goes to a Non-Target (e.g., a county college or anothercollege with little to no on-campus recruiting) and wants to get into #InvestmentBanking?Listen to today's podcast because the episode is for you. It might seemdaunting and overwhelming at first, but the secret sauce is consistency overtime. So, how does one go from a county college to their dream job in InvestmentBanking? I think the journey depends on the starting point. Today, I focus onwhat freshmen and sophomore students should do today to get started on theirjourney. Here are a few steps that you need to follow:.One, go throughhistorical placements (e.g., where have students placed in the past 5 years,are there specific groups, firms, or regions where your school does well?),understand the landscape for whatever OCR exists (however sparse it might be), howmuch time do you have until you graduate, are you willing to stay an extra yearand what is your appetite + ability to transfer to another school .Second, start pullingback on your course load and take the easiest classes possible. Students forgetwhy they are in college – to get a job. There is no need to take advanced coursesin your first two years or double major if there is no need. You don't havetime to be spending on problem sets as a computer science major if you know youwant to work in Investment Banking. If you are at a Non-Target (e.g., countycollege or another random state school), you need to maintain a high G.P.A.,prep for technical interviews, be involved on campus, and spend time buildingyour network. That is all you should be doing. . Third, getstarted on your Reaching Out Initiative (R.O.I.) by building out a list of professionalsyou want to reach out to, firms you are interested in, and make sure yournarrative & story is perfected. . Fourth, this isthe step that never stops. Ongoing preparation for technical and behavioral questions,conducting 1:1's / informational interviews, and successfully navigatingthrough actual interviews. . Fifth, keepevaluating your performance and be objective with your shortcomings, e.g.,where are you failing and why, what are the technicals tripping you up, or arethere specific behavioral questions where you ramble on for too long? .This exercise aimsto further remove the noise from your day-to-day and remain focused on whatmatters – getting a job in Investment Banking.

Investment Banking amplifiesyour career and gives you a leg up on what you want to do after your time in InvestmentBanking. .1. I wanted deal experience.What does this mean? I wanted to work on M&amp;A transactions, capital marketactivities (e.g., debt offerings &amp; equity raises), understand how dealscame together from the point of a seller, buyer, and creditors (I worked inrestructuring). .2. I wanted to developa solid technical and soft skill set. Let's break these two down a bit more. &nbsp;Technical SkillSet means the following (to me): Can you take a CIM, a 10-K, or a teaser andextrapolate the given data to create a 1-page write up on a deal or company thatspeaks to the merits of the deal (favorable or a negative). Further, can youleverage excel as a tool to complete an analysis (whatever it might be, e.g., accretion/dilution,LBO, DCF, forecasting analysis, etc.) &nbsp;Soft Skill Set meansthe following (again, to me): can you take a blank PowerPoint and use it toconvey a story to a buyer or seller to speak to why the transaction orinvestment is worthwhile, i.e., should we buy or sell or raise capital ordivest an asset, etc. .3. I knew I wantedto be an investor/operator as an "end state" for my career. As I researchedthe career of folks that I admire (e.g., Thomas Tull, John Malone, Ken Moelis, JoshHarris, Louis Bacon, Bob Iger, Neil &amp; David Rimer, Meg Whitman, DeborahFarrington, Indra Nooyi), I realized most had backgrounds in either consulting/banking/buy-side),I knew that investment banking was the best place for me to go and start mycareer – get my feet wet and then go from there. .This exercise aimsto further remove the noise from your day-to-day and remain focused on whatmatters – getting a job in Investment Banking. .

I go over two things in today’s episode that will help you on your journey into investment banking.One, I go over how anyone (regardless of &nbsp;what grade you are in e.g., if you are a freshman, sophomore, junior or senior etc.) can apply “P.P.D” to their own situation and get started on their path to the front office.Second, we review a case study of one of the students that I have coached in the past and how you can learn from their journey coupled with applying the strategies we used for this specific student for your own situation. A lot of students often get overwhelmed with all the information being thrown at them (and I don’t blame them as there is a lot of bad information out there), and do not know how to even take the first step.

Very excited to drop the first episode of How to Get Into Investment Banking as it has been over 3 years in the making.There are so many students that need proper guidance instead of relying on clickbait YouTube videos (e.g., how many hours you will work, how much you will make, and what the most prestigious group is, etc.). All of that is just noise. Students need actual, tangible advice that they can follow to land interviews and secure offers. Make sure to tune in or share with someone you know who is serious about a career in Investment Banking!
