Yo ur time at university 1. What have you learned from your studies that can be applied to a career in investment banking? You might initially think that if you haven't done a degree in finance or economics you haven't got very much to offer an investment bank, but you'd be wrong.

Extra-curricular activities may have given you a wealth of other skills that are valuable at an investment bank, such as being able to juggle a number of commitments and work with others. You could even choose to study a related Masters degree to help make your CV stand out, such as the  MSc in Finance at Cass Business School . Your motivation for working in banking 2.
