How does a history major get into international banking?

I would assume some sort of pedigree is involved.



You mean like a degree from an Ivy? No, not at all.

Then URM, social connection, private university/college, high achiever at high level state school plus luck. In that order.


What is wrong w/ accepting that the initial poster just got the job w/o some special help? Why try to pick their success apart? This a great thread except for you and the person (maybe also you) who was slamming on the start up.

Congrats to all these grads on their successes, thanks to the Peace Corps kid, and hopefully the Accounting grad will find a job soon!

Because that's not the way the world works. I really doubt some white kid from a nothing state school was cherry picked for I-banking, just like that. Honesty & PP isn't sharing anything. BTW there are at least 2 others on this inquiry.


That story is utter BS. More likely they worked back office.

They’re giving three statistics. What part isn’t serious?
