    Hi Ben! Could you talk about MBA recruiting? I know back in your JPM days you helped with undergrad recruiting and that this year unfortunately a significant amount of MBA interns couldn’t land summer associate due to the slowdown in M&A activity, but I am very curious about MBA recruiting and was wondering if you could gather a few classmates that are going into IB and talk about it.

Wondering how much demand there is/will be for AI and ML in ib. it's a highly competitive industry and I think one needs to stand out to keep earning loads after their 30s, b4 being fired cuz the economy is looking down, or being replaced by the fresh blood right? Is AI a good way to stand out and keep the edge?

    • @Mariah-525
      @Mariah-525 Před 9 měsíci

      As an investment banker you can reach a magnificent salary in a few years, but you'll have to work so many hours a day. There is practically not much of a ceiling for the income. I ve heard of bankers making one million a month. But the sacrifice is huge and the stress and pressure are as well. It's also very competitive, not just when it comes to getting into it, but also when it comes to keeping the job. At many investment banks, many employees are fired monthly, so you have to be very competent to stay there, to walk the extra mile, to have something unique to make you stand out. You have to be the best at least at one thing. As a software developer, you ll still be making very good money, most probably six figures, but it can be harder to climb the ladder. Since it s a more scientific field, the gurus of software are very intelligent, very skilled and it s hard to beat them. At a very high level, coding is very hard. If you re alright with not advancing in your career very often, and if your goal isn t to become an executive or a high level manager, then you won t have a problem with this. The hours for software devs are waaay better than for bankers, so developers win at the work life balance chapter. If you d like to have a family and spend time with them, or if you d like to have more leisure time, software would offer you that. If your goal is to make the most money you can make, you have a high resistance to stress and you re willing to dedicate most of your life to work, then you can go for investment banking.
