Breaking Into Investment Banking | High Finance

Breaking into Investment Banking can be difficult to navigate, especially when you're trying to figure out what recruiters actually look for, how to approach networking and how to prepare for the hiring process.

I've recently gone through this journey myself. With an engineering and Product Management background, to IIM Udaipur, an Investment Banking internship at Goldman Sachs, and now working in Front Office Investment Banking in the Equity Capital Markets Team at SBI Capital Markets.

In this session, we can discuss:

• How to approach Investment Banking recruiting

• What roles and teams you should be targeting

• How to build a finance-oriented profile

• Resume positioning for IB roles

• Networking and cold outreach

• How to approach bankers and recruiters

• Technical interview preparation

• Behavioral / HR interview preparation

• How I approached my own transition into finance

• What I would do differently if I were starting again

The objective is to share practical insights from a recent candidate's experience and help you understand what you can do to improve your own chances.

This is especially useful for students, MBA candidates, engineers and young professionals trying to break into Investment Banking or other High Finance roles.
