Thank you ! I am an IB intern and I intend to stay for a couple of years before switching to Corporate Finance for more stability and work/life balance
Best video! I really appreciate it. If my goal is to find the least stressful/best work-life balance area with a finance degree, could you recommend something more or less specific? Thank you very much
It really depends on what you like to do and the company you select vs. the specific career path. There are many companies where you can work 40 hours a month and maintain a good work life balance. I would start with which career path within finance seems interesting to you and then you can work backwards into what job within that career path (i.e. how far up the ladder you will go) and which company's culture fits what you want. For instance, you may find a company like Patagonia where the founder wanted everyone to have good balance and they would cancel meetings to go surfing when the surf was good!
Thanks for the video! I'm fascinate about economy and markets and I'm very lost finding areas and information to decide which roles are suitable for me. Cheers.
Great video, very comprehensive and informative. Being in corporate finance myself, I wanted to ask if indeed there is a growth outlook for these jobs with all the “automation of things” going on in corporates.
I think so, at least for the good/higher paying jobs. There will be continued automation of transactional work, but ultimately that is a good thing... because most people really don't like doing those manual/transactional things. This will mean corporate finance jobs will become more interesting... people who are good critical thinkers, are willing to learn the operations of the business, and who are good leaders will have even more opportunities.
@@CorporateFinanceAcademy Thanks for the reply! Indeed, I agree that jobs will eventually become more interesting by taking out the transactional elements. Very interested also to see how entry level positions will evolve.
Hello, great video! Very informative. Quick question, which pathway would hedge funds and pensions fall into, dealing with public and private equities.
Amazingly useful! thank you

Love it! It’s a great place to make a career. You can get to a great total comp without completely burning out along the way!

Hello, great video! Very informative.
Quick question, which pathway would hedge funds and pensions fall into, dealing with public and private equities.
hedge funds are probably closest to private equity ... but they are definitely different flavors!
Is it possible to transition from being a Credit Rating Analyst at a CRA to Equity Research Analyst at a big bank?
i subscribe. thx
Great - Thanks!
Whats the diff between commercial banks and retail banks?
no difference
Can you get any of these jobs with a business degree (private equity)
Yes. However, where you went to school, which degree you have, and how well you did all play a factor on how hard/easy it will be to get the jobs!
Is CFA useful for Private Equity?
It doesn't hurt, but it certainly isn't required.
Me graduating with a B.S. in Mathematics, no experience, trying to get into finance. 🤡
I know some very successful finance people with math degrees. One of the best I know was a biology major (he’s a CFO of a large public company now)
So that is why I can't get a job in finance 🤣
