Hey man, you probably know this, but these videos are exactly what the young ones need ;)
So true man, he doesn’t realise what he doing for the kids who have no one to ask or talk to about stuff like this
You're too kind. Thanks!
Glad I can help 👊🏽
Exactly, well said
Really useful information - shows the importance of a clear strategy and approach from the onset and adapting your strategy based on application outcomes etc.

dam youtube's algo x)
Nice editing :p
You are a legend bro thank you
Lol thanks 😊
Great video!
Thanks!
Hey! Can you please make a video on *CMT* course and CMT Vs Ms in Finance or CMT vs CFA.
Hi Afzal, thank you for the informative video! What strategy would you recommend for target school students going into penultimate year study, but without any spring schemes? Feeling ambitious but no safety nets at the same time 😂 Thanks
Hi there I have a question so I came from a non-target university and got BComm. Finance degree. I have some experience from working in the back end of a big bank and I did a non-paid internship for a venture capital firm. Do you think me pursuing the CFA can better my chances in landing a job say in Wealth Management or anything financial in general?
Hey man love the content.
When in year 1 will you have to apply for spring week?
Yes.
Afzal Hussein do you do it before uni starts or after?
Inspirational
Thanks!
im trying to apply for internship but have no relevant work experience , since its only an internship will tht set me back.
Is Loughborough University Economics BSc good enough for IB?
What’s the best way to learn the technical details of finance and investment banking? Are there any books or websites you recommend?
Website: Wall Street Prep
Books: Rosenbaum
Other: Aswath Damodaran’s Stern course on his website
You’re welcome

How did you do in your A levels and how important were they in your journey?
Initially I completed messed up. Then redid AS and got A's and B's.
With this whole COVID situation, how important will work experience be when applying for summer internships this year. As I did not get onto a spring week
I secured my summer internship this year mainly due to my work experience I think. I obtained a First Class in my first year from a mid/low tier Uni, but got great A Levels and had 3 years experience in a building society. I would say it’s more important than ever, as some banks/divisions are looking to recruit fewer interns, that being said, some are also looking for more!
Experience always helps tbf.
As mentioned experience always always helps but it depends, you could try applying to some spring week programs by declaring you intend to do a Masters which could help your chances
Hey man!
Im 17 years old and from Vienna, Austria🇦🇹. I just saw an ad about a financial certification from the Coperate Finance Institute. Are those Kind of online certification important or are These certifications not So important?
Have a nice day👍
Hello !
There are lots of certifications! Choose them, based on the role you want to have in the firm. For example : there are : CFA,
ACCA, CPA, CMT, qualifications
Are insight weeks available for masters students??
please do reply .
thanks
Unfortunately, they're for first years.
@@AfzalHussein If you could make a video guiding master's students to get into investment banking and the networking events available , it'd help alot of us.
Hey! Do you need a maths based degree to secure a job at investment banks??
Not at all! Diversity of thought has always had a place within banking, successful candidates have studied subjects like classic or music for example.
Maths is definitely not a prequiste though being fairly good with numbers can go a long way regardless of subject studied.
Much of the day to day job in banking can be taught so maths isn't necessary. Like Afzal mentions here Experience and a good CV/application strategy means more
is there an alevel filter or do they only use degree grades?
They ask for both.
@@AfzalHussein what if you dont have the required grades for alevels could you possibly do a video about it
@@AfzalHussein if i dont get the grades this year because of cancelled exams do you think i should consider retaking the year
That's a tough one. Grades are only a small fraction of securing an offer.
No. Of course better grades means a higher chance of getting into a better uni and therefore increasing your overall chances but there isn't an explicit grade.
Experience and overall application matters more. We know candidates who have grades ranging from BBC to ABB and above who have secured roles - it's never that clear cut. At least for now.
Wait a 2.1GPA on a 4.0 scale could get you a interview at Goldman Sachs ??? Thanks for the video love the content !
A 2.1 uk grade, so around 3.4 gpa I believe
No a 2:1 Grade in the UK system. its equivalent of 3.4-5 GPA. a First class in the UK system is equivalent to 3.7 and up I think (Magna - Suma)
BRO where do "INVESTMENT BANKER " invest their savings 💰 ( they can do trading illegally?) 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Movie at 4:30?

You’re the man thank you
No probs!
What are A-levels? I’m in the US and have never heard of ‘A-levels’
Google it?
why does a uni degree matter? if you are smart enough and know the field then it shouldnt even matter if you havent gone past high school
You can be smart enough, but you still have to get your foot in the door. Often times that what the top target schools can help you do
Need proof
Might be a question for the banks 👍
