    DUDE HOW DOES SOMEONE START BY SAYING THAT THEY DIDNT HAVE MUCH EXPERIENCE UNTIL THEY GOT TO COLLEGE? 99% OF FOLKS WHO ARE IN IB DONT HAVE EXPERIENCE WHEN THEY GET TO COLLEGE, UNTIL THEY START INTERNSHIPS 🤨🤨

      Dude you should have been getting work experience since kindergaten and by high school they expect you to have been shadowing MD at Goldmans sachs and networking for Harvard MBA students. Then you are ready for an internship provided your extra curricular included at least 1 tour with the navy seals.

      I was literally thinking the same thing. I think it may stem from finance recruits having parents/family friends in the industry/professional services and therefore being allowed to shadow or experience parts of the industry through those familiar connections.

    When you say accounting is necessary, how deep do you mean? Would being able to look at, interpret and understand the balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and basic ratios be enough? Or would you need more than that?

    Great vid , ppl getting info from someone with xp is always great. Don't you think it's weird how it seems that working 100+ hours was normal? Can people really live balanced and healthy lives where they can maintain fulfilling relationships (w/friends, fam and community) if they work so much?

    I passed the hireview at Goldman Sachs a few weeks ago, and I am now at the second round planned for next week. As I am only a junior and have had lot more general educations courses rather than finance ones; are the interviewer gonna focus on behavioral questions ? or we ll go on technicals that I don't know yet as i just started my third year of college?

    Good video. Investment banking is a garbage sector. These banks add little value. Most M&A transactions are failures. Bankers are a bunch of overpaid crooks looking to extract fees from clients. Some day investment banking and trading will be all automated by AI.

    But I was left wanting more because the part about what it takes to do the job beyond the 100 hours and the will to do the job,
    I would have liked to know what soft skills you need to do the job.
    What kind of lifestyle do you need to have and what is the work environment in an investment bank?
