Hi everyone,

I wanted to share some practical advice for those preparing to enter sell-side careers. You have to consider some aspect of it.

First, recruiting advice: atend industry events, use LinkedIn to connect with professionals, and don't hesitate to reach out for informational interviews.

Highlight relevant coursework, internships, and technical skills specific to the role you’re applying. Research the culture, recent deals, and market position of the company before interviews.

Be ready to explain valuation methodologies, financial modeling, market concepts, and trading strategies relevant to your area. Practice storytelling to clearly state your motivations, past experiences, and how you handle challenges. For roles like Equity Research and Sales & Trading, you might face case studies or quick mental math tests – sharpen these skills regularly

Thanks. I hope it helps.
