Very helpful! Have you thought about a video explaining what the target (and semi targets) are in the UK and the USA? I keep hearing about them so it would be great to know which unis are targeted more than others
*Q&A questions with relevance to banking and finance* 1. What qualification other than/along with CFA or Masters is required? 2. What are the best qualifications? 3. In what aspects should one improve to have a successful career?
Hey Afzal make a video on what kind books you read i would like to know what collection of books you have. Books you read related to banking investment or related to your career and your personal favourite books.It would help us to learn. 🙂
which country are you or your parents originally from? do you have brothers/sisters/girlfriend? what are your hobbies? what jobs have you done in your life? which cities have you lived in? on this 10K occasion, can you speak about yourself a little? so can know you better
Would you recommend applying to lots of banks- because I’ve heard that in the interview you will be asked how many banks you’re interviewing at, will this harm your chances if you say you’ve applied to loads.
**How can I sell my background and convince a company to take a chance on me and hire me?** I'm an international student and need visa sponsorship, but a lot of the times, companies basically hang up and don't hear all of my achievements. Thank you!!
Don't mention the fact that you need visa sponsorship. Enter the selection process and, if you make it through, you let them know that you are an international student. If you start by saying things that make the employer work more, you are less likely to be selected. Sounds obvious but sometimes it isn't. Hope to be of some kind of help.

Do they most of the time employ only people from top universities? Is it harder to work in inv bank or in hedge fond? What do you thing about hedge funds and why you don't work in hedge fund? What would you suggest to someone who is in high school and want to work in hedge fund after university?, what to study and what to do outside of university to have more chances to get in a hedge fund? Thank you on your answers Ps visit Croatia during the summer, you will not regret

(Q and a) how much do the cultures vary between investment banks and how much should this effect your choice when considering internships, jobs etc?
Do you think Computer science will be useful for future investment analysts?
Human click different to different people.

My Question : Will you start your full fledged Boutique firm, along with mentoring ?
ii) When will you come to India ?
iii) where did you meet your wife for the first time ?
Should I do an Economics Degree or a Finance Degree or something Different
I’d say Economics undergrad, Finance Masters
Go for maths!
Both
Would doing CFA level 1 in a gap year before uni be worth it?
EXPERIENCE TRUMPS ALL
