sambobia Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 ...if you are going to do it, don't stay in ED. Move to Clapham. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/12298-working-in-finance-the-city/#findComment-343066 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Do a relevant degree. Apply to all the graduate programmes. Do some reading up. Buy a decent suit. See what happens.If you're lucky, you'll be in for a lifetime of staring at Bloomberg pages and spreadsheets by day, and schmoozing with clients by night.If you're unlucky, you'll fail, and might actually end up doing something enjoyable instead.

ruffers Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I wasn't sure from the original (unedited) post what james84 wanted to do - a bit more clarity of what the end goal is would be a good start..

legalbeagle Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! I did it for 10 years. Almost anything else would be less, well, soul destroying? But that's just me. You might really like it. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/12298-working-in-finance-the-city/#findComment-343397 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kells Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Edited because I re-read it and I'm not really that grumpy!I would have liked to work in finance, and my post just came across as bitter. I'm not. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/12298-working-in-finance-the-city/#findComment-343399 Share on other sites More sharing options...
