If financial econ is a Ba youre dreaming if you can get in investment banking lol

False. I work in analytics at a bank and a lot of the inv / corp banking interns had BAs in econ/ finance

[@nuanceatnoon]

@@aw_shucks17please expand. What major gets you the best shot at investment banking?

[@faresmarzouk3742]

The primary recruitment entry point for investment banking is through undergraduate programs. In this case, a student pursuing financial economics at an Ivy League institution, located less than 10 miles from Wall Street, will likely find securing an entry-level analyst position to be... Pretty easy.

[@StevensBorowsky]

​@@faresmarzouk3742 I am an economics major at Columbia about to graduate, and I don't know a single person in banking, or almost anyone that successfully got employment from Columbia, except for a few people with wealthy families that got them jobs. Securing an internship is actually literally impossible for most, not just figuratively, but literally impossible, because there are so many stipulations, and sometimes 10,000 applications or more per position. I'm struggling even to find an entry level government job, and I've got a 3.5 and maximum veteran's preference. Every undergraduate level job has PhD and masters degree candidates applying.

You can major in History and go into investment banking if you go to an Ivy League like Columbia lol

[@koolrocker12]

@@TheLiquidChicken69Analytics isn’t “both”, what are you talking about? The only thing that IB and Analytics have in common it’s that they’re analysis heavy (or number crunching) roles, but besides that they’re extremely different. I worked in Investment Banking and pivoted to Analytics in big tech and I can tell you for a fact that Analytics is nothing compared to banking. I was working 80 hours on the regular on IB and I moved out of IB precisely because of the hours. The job was interesting and I was learning a lot but the hours were killing me.
