What steps do I need to take to become an Investment Banker?

My name is Prithvi and I am currently a Junior in High School. My interest in college is oriented towards Economics and Finance and after combing through many different career options, I decided that I want to pursue a job at Wall St. firm as an Investment Banker. What do I need to do in order to get to the point? I am specifically asking about education, tests (like the MCAT for medicine but in regards to Finance and Econ.), and positions I need to experience before I can achieve my goal. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! #finance #economics #investment-banking #investment-banker #stock-broker

what are some investment banking/finance-related opportunities?

I currently study finance at Taylor University, Malaysia. And am interested in investing, banking, finance, economics, and how money works. I was looking for opportunities to work in a related sector such as investment banking or banks in general. Still, I want to know which countries have such opportunities in the finance sector and have demand for it, which can provide a good experience and ability to grow. I know generally that the US is the best option but there is too much competition at the moment so Im searching for the less competitive markets for ex: Europe, Canada, or Arabic countries? Besides that, I wanted to know what courses or work experience I should take during my studies to improve my resume and make me highly qualified in this field.

Should I major in Finance or Economics?

I am currently a junior in High School and I am very interested in working on Wall St. when I grow up, as I have been for a long time. However, with the main majors like Finance, Economics, Accounting, and Business, choosing a major has become difficult. So far, I have narrowed the choices to Finance and Econ., but I want to learn more about each so I know what I can do with the specified degree if I happen to work at my dream job as an Investment Banker or other possible occupations if that doesn't work out. Any information would be helpful. #college-major #finance #economics #college-majors #investment-banking #investment-banker
