    Hi Kenji,
    I’ve seen some of your videos so far to gain further understanding of banking and economics.
    And, although I’m not fully aware of various topics in this field, not yet anyway, I’ve found that the way you explain things is just so succinct. The edits of your videos, illustrations, the way you talk and relay information, your friendly manner etc all really helps me to learn.
    Thank you so much Kenji, I look forward to learning from you more.
    By the way you are doing amazing in life, you should be really proud!
    Zara

    Hey Kenji,
    I have one request for you. Big companies are outsourcing their workforce from another country to reduce their cost and get the best from another country. Could you please make a video about it? How can a person living in another country get a job in big financial firm? I would highly appreciate if you can make even a short clip on that.
    Thank you! Keep up the good work.

    • @KenjiExplains
      @KenjiExplains  Před 2 lety +3

      Hi there! Hmmm this is what I used to have for IB cover letters: "I am particularly attracted to X company as junior employees have substantial responsibilities, receive training and mentorship, and gain exposure to some of the largest transactions in the economy. Specifically, I am passionate about investment banking for its combination of client-oriented and technical valuation work."
      Hope this gives you some guidance.
      I also made a video on my IB cover letter here: czcams.com/video/nyMPM5HqKx8/video.html

    Hi Kenji,
    If last summer was job was not so impressive (due to COVID shutting down my internship program), would you recommend leaving out Summer 2020 job altogether from my resume if my previous summer work (2017,18,19) is more impressive?

    I love your videos, but I have to say.. You have to clip "Right?" from your transition. -- This video really highlights that with every transition looking as though you are asking the audience if what you said what correct. Right? - Keep up the great work! Again, I love your content.

      For full time its very hard to get in without a degree yes. But you can get internships while you’re still a student
