How to Break Into a Career on Wall Street – What Your Professors Didn’t (or Couldn’t) Tell You

So – you think you want to be a banker, and you don’t know where to begin.  Whether you’re still in college, a couple of years out, or already in an established career and looking for a change, it’s never too late to begin a career in finance.  Finance is unique among many high-paying professions in that successful bankers come from a very diverse range of backgrounds.  You don’t necessarily have to graduate from the most prestigious school, have the most impressive GPA, or complete a specific (or any) graduate program to make it.  You simply have to have what it takes to get ahead and stay ahead in what has become one of the most competitive professions in the world.

Step 1: Do Your Homework

For many people, banking as a whole first comes to their attention by means of its lucrative and infamous salaries.  There are few jobs out there that can garner as high a wage as a successful career in finance, but the field itself is very diverse and includes much more than your stereotypical private-jet-owning investment bankers.  If you haven’t already, take a look through online resources detailing the differences between areas like corporate finance, financial planning, hedge funds, investment banking, and private equity to get a feel for what you might be interested in.  Attend conferences, go to lectures, and if you can, pick up an internship. Since the recent financial crisis, Wall Street firms have been pulling more and more new hires from their summer and year-long internship pool, and taking an internship will allow you to explore and discover exactly which areas you might be interested in.

Step 2: Understand the Lifestyle: You are NOT in a 9-5 Desk Job

Readers beware: while a 6-figure salary straight out of college may seem like a dream come true, let there be no doubt in your mind that you will be working hard, long hours to earn those 6 digits.  For those who choose to follow their hearts to the large firms of Wall Street, first year investment banking analysts have been known to work 100+ hours a week, running on nothing but ungodly amounts of Starbucks coffee.  Think long and hard about what the position entails and why you are suited for it.   Also, interviewers will be able to tell if you don’t actually know anything about the culture of finance when you come in.  Do some research, ask around – know about the different fields and the different lifestyles attached to each one.  Follow the news in finance beyond picking up a Wall Street Journal the night before you interview.

One [perhaps dramatized] example of Wall Street culture:

Step 3: Network Like Your Life Depends on It

Landing your first job at a bank is all about getting your foot in the door.  Be proactive about meeting people wherever you go.  Take business cards.  Search your current network for people within the firm you hope to apply to.  According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, 70 percent of all jobs are found through networking.  Use resources like Doostang or LinkedIn to your advantage to search for positions and make connections along the way.   Knowing people within a bank you’re applying to will be able to set you apart from the hundreds of applications that are received every year.

Step 4:  Send in Your Resume, and Be Yourself

Unlike career paths in academia, jobs in finance, especially in areas like sales & trading, don’t always rely heavily on your academic credentials to gauge potential.  A successful analyst or associate is often someone who possesses certain personality traits – like the ability to prioritize, to work well as a part of a team, and to take entrepreneurial initiative.  If you think that finance is a field in which you will excel, go for it and have faith in your abilities!  it may take an untraditional applicant a bit longer to move up and land the job that you want, but soon enough people will catch on to your potential and you will be on your way.

Step 5: If at First You Don’t Succeed

Like we said, a lot of breaking into finance is simply about getting interested, informed, and your foot in the door.  If you really think that you’ve got what it takes to be successful, don’t give up until you get a chance to show your stuff.  Once you’re in any kind of job or internship, you’ll be able to learn and move up in rank quickly if you have the right skills and personality.  So don’t let a round of disastrous applications get you down.  Try applying to a smaller bank or for a job in a related field first.  Work hard at whatever you’re doing, continue to network, and chase after that job until you land it.

And our last bit of advice: just be honest.  Be honest with yourself, and be honest with the people you meet.  If there’s something you don’t know or are unsure about, say something.  People are much more likely to care about you and your career if you are honest with them from the get-go.  By approaching each situation with sincerity, enthusiasm, and integrity, you will be sure to nail your interview, land your job, and create a successful and fulfilling career.

Best of luck future Wall Street wanderers,

How to Network Successfully – 6 Tips on Finding Your Next Corporate BFF

Networking: it’s really just a big fancy word for making new friends.

Human beings are social animals, and like so many other things we quirky sapiens do, networking has served an evolutionary purpose long before the advent of Twitter, Facebook, or (gasp!) even Doostang.  According to one theory, humans’ ability to socialize with one another played a key role in the eventual survival of our species, as we were able to band together in communities to protect ourselves against stronger, more aggressive animals.  Without our superior communication skills, our entire race may have died out eons ago!

So now that I’ve captured your attention with a little bit of 5^th grade evolutionary biology, how does all of this relate to your job search?  The point of this is that our capacity for networking makes us stronger – whether we’re 11^th century Mongols, pre-modern jungle people, or suit and tie white-collar professionals.  Bringing people into your social circle incorporates their skills and knowledge into your own repertoire, which profoundly extends your opportunities to be successful.

Now you’re thinking: “Okay great, ‘make new friends’ was my mom’s advice in middle school – and it got me as far as a black eye and a nickname that made me a 11 year old social pariah.”  To you I say: have no fear.  There are a few easy tips you can practice that, if followed, will allow even the most socially awkward introvert to run with the in crowd.

1. Smile

There has been a lot of academic research on smiling and its effects on humans.  Whatever their origin, smiles have a powerful positive effect on how people perceive you.  Smiles actually make you look younger, confident, more attractive, and more approachable.  Not only that, but they can actually have an effect on your mood.  Smiling can trick the body into being happy even when you’re nervous or stressed.  Researchers even found that smiling can have an effect in courtroom decisions – the ‘smile-leniency effect’ dictates that people who smile are more likely to receive lighter penalties from courtroom judges.

2. Don’t Stare People Down

A lot of people mistakenly hear that the key to a good interview is to keep strong eye contact.  But seriously – think about it – if you are staring down your interviewer 100% of the time you not only strongly resemble a cat, but it’s downright creepy.  While you don’t want to shift your eyes and seem disinterested, most people are not comfortable with eye contact that lasts more than a few seconds.

3. Keep the Conversation Light

Never ask a personal question that you do not already know the answer to!  I once went to a conference and asked an acquaintance about her significant other – I had met this person once before and happened to know that she was in a relationship.  It turned out that they had broken up just days before.  EMBARASSING.  Don’t let those kinds of awkward turtle moments happen to you!

4. Get Personal

Like we said before, networking is really about making new friends.  Strike up conversations that center around your interests and you are bound to find others who feel the same way.  Be honest.  It doesn’t have to be about what you do for a living, although letting people know how you arrived at the place you are now is always an important topic when it comes to cuing them in to your current job search.  You can talk about running, your Wednesday knitting club, or your secret love of Glee.  Find common ground and build relationships.  The more you share with people, the more trust you will build, and the more they will share with you.  Only once you build and strengthen these professional friendships can you ask the people in your network for assistance in your job search.  (Disclaimer: there is such a thing as being TOO honest.  Stick to rule #3 and stay away from anything labeled TMI!)

5. Be a Good Listener

Networking is just as much about sharing your story as it is about listening to others’.  Like any relationship, a professional relationship is a two-way deal, and your goal is to be as valuable to your contacts as they are to you.  Listen to their stories and think of ways to be helpful to them.  Maybe you know someone in the industry they are looking to break into?  Maybe you both really want to see the midnight showing of the next Twilight film and can talk for hours about the relative merits of the books vs. movies?  Make yourself both useful and fun to be around.  Capitalize on the fact that people love talking about themselves.

6. Take Names

Always Always Always Always… ask for business cards.  The worst thing you can do is hit it off with someone and then forget to follow up.  Not only will he or she probably forget about you when you never contact them again, but they may even feel put off – which can lose you that contact PLUS their whole social network (assuming they warn their colleagues about the lame dude who never followed up with tennis plans).  Try to always keep a few business cards with you when you go out.  You could even get a little creative and print them out on beef jerky.  Although that may limit your networking bubble as you try to steer clear of any and all vegetarians.

Remember, networking isn’t something new.  It’s essentially a buzzword describing something that you already know how to do and have been doing for your whole life.  It’s about getting along with people and honing your innate social skills.  By becoming aware of yourself and the way others’ perceive you, it’s possible to make any social situation beneficial to your professional goals.

So now, go forth, ye job searchers!  Make new friends, take business cards, and play lots of golf, tennis, and other stereotypically corporate sports.  May you have many successful business contacts in your future.

Your Career Search BFFs,

Team Doostang

More jobs we think you’ll like…

Whether you’re set in your field or just aiming to break into a particular industry, moving forward in your career in this job market is no easy task. Fortunately, there are resources out there that can set you on the right career path and guide you along the way.

And here at Doostang we’re bringing you some insider tips from one of these. Read on for some career wisdom about finance, online businesses, resumes and more.

Doostang News October 26: Q&A with Patrick Curtis.

Doostang has recently partnered with Wall Street Oasis, an online community for finance professionals and those trying to break into the industry. We got a chance to speak with its CEO and Founder, Patrick Curtis, who singlehandedly combined two seemingly unrelated industries – finance and web 2.0 – and created this informative resource. And he has some invaluable insight on how to achieve success in today’s tough job market.

1) Tell us a little more about Wall Street Oasis. What inspired you, what is it’s purpose and what were you trying to accomplish with this site?

WallStreetOasis.com is an online community of finance professionals and students trying to break into Wall Street careers. Our main purpose is to provide a place where young finance professionals can plan their next career move, let off some steam and help give advice to college students trying to follow in their footsteps.

I was inspired to start the site because I didn’t see any social networks that specifically addressed my questions when I was an investment banker. I was looking to jump to private equity after two years and all the information I got (whether that was a list of recruiters, a compensation database or interview tips) was 2nd hand through co-workers and hearsay. I felt that if I could establish an online community that took a more lighthearted and fun approach as well as start publishing guides that were more specific to this market, that I could fill a need. I also knew from experience what some of the young bankers were going through (working 100hr weeks, a lot of stress and an uncertain future) and enjoyed providing a platform for them to speak their mind.

The community has continued its strong growth since 2006 even through the financial crisis. We’ve built a loyal community that gives great career advice and insight into specific firms. So far, we’ve released nine guides aimed at investment banking, private equity, venture capital, sales & trading and general career advice.

2) You have extensive investment banking and private equity experience. Why did you decide to shift from a more traditional finance route and focus on running an online community? What has this experience been like?

I made the shift from a more traditional finance route with the help of the entrepreneurial community here in business school. I knew I really enjoyed running Wall Street Oasis but without the help from my classmates at Wharton and the entrepreneurial programs here, I would not have been able to make this a full time job. I’m really excited to be able to work on the community full time when I graduate this May. I was working on WallStreetOasis.com full time (without a full time job or classes) this past summer for the first time and we made a lot of progress — so I am confident that we can keep improving.

3) What were some challenges and what helped you along the way? What recommendations do you have for someone who wants to start a successful online community?

The primary challenge was finding the time to keep the site alive when times were tough and finding the right people to outsource some of the work. There were several botched launches / upgrades, many attacks on the site and growing pains I had to manage while working 70-80 hour weeks. I had no background in social networks so every day was a learning process.

If someone wants to start a successful online community I would give three main pieces of advice:

1. Start early, stop planning. What I mean by this is you don’t have to have all the bells & whistles that other more mature community sites have. You can save yourself a lot of time and money by making sure there is enough interest first…most niche communities will be happy there is a place for them to go and will cut you some slack early on.

2. Always Get Feedback and have an open dialogue. I always try to get feedback from my users and they are brutally honest with me. But that is what I want because a lot of our best ideas have come from my users.

3. Find a Hook. For Wall Street Oasis, the primary hook we used was a Compensation Database. We keep this free but require a visitor to register to see it. It is one of the ways we grow our community and I think it was one of the primary reasons we were able to achieve a critical mass early — which is crucial to any social network.

4) Wall Street Oasis claims that its ultimate aim is to inform. What would you say are the key points that someone with an interest in finance needs to know?

I think a lot of college students get wrapped up in rankings and prestige of Wall Street when they should really be focused on the type of job that will suit their personality best. Yes, brand names have value on Wall Street like everywhere else in life, but if you come from a “non-target school” or don’t end up at Morgan Stanley or Goldman Sachs straight out of undergrad your life will go on and you can still be very successful.

It’s tough when you’re 22 and you see all of the talk about compensation and exit opportunities and X group vs. Y group. I think sometimes this leads to information overload for these students and they have a skewed perception of what the industry is like. I think in any highly competitive field people will occasionally romanticize the reality.

Other things being equal, obviously a high GPA and strong extra-curriculars will give someone an advantage in recruiting, but I would argue that finance is no different than any profession — those that learn how to network effectively and are the most persistent will ultimately rise to the top.

5) One of the services Wall Street Oasis provides is resume reviews where you personally review and give feedback on people’s resumes. Having seen thousands of resumes, what would you say are the most common resume mistakes people make and what are some ways to fix them? What makes a stellar resume?

We actually have a very famous discussion on our forums related to this exact topic titled More Classics from Resumes and Cover Letters. While somewhat harsh, this is the reality of the resume screening on Wall Street. Analysts are often in charge of the initial screen and overselling, over-embellishing, or trying to “sound smart” can push your resume to the trash pile very fast. Sometimes, in an attempt to impress, students cross a line and actually hurt their chances.

Other common mistakes are simple formatting / spelling errors. Every resume needs to be printed out and reviewed several times in hard copy to make sure everything is aligned (just like a banker would).

A stellar resume is when the candidate is strong (high GPA, target school, good scores, relevant classes) and they also get involved on campus and hold a few leadership positions. It is more important to have a few extracurricular activities that you excel in rather than being a member of 10 clubs where you play less of a leadership role. Another attribute of a stellar resume is that each and every bullet should have a purpose and communicate an accomplishment or a responsibility held by the candidate with concrete facts / numbers / figures. Come interview time the candidate should be able to elaborate on each of these bullets comfortably.

6) Many Doostang members are seeking a career in finance. What advice would you give to someone looking for employment in the financial sector? Can you provide some insight into the industry or the hiring process?

This is THE most difficult year I have ever seen recruiting wise. So my main advice this year is to be patient and look for a backup. It is important to realize that a lot of firms have a hiring freeze on or are only hiring a few candidates. Even at target schools, where investment banks and consulting firms traditionally hire most of their work force, the competition this year will be fierce. If you don’t get something immediately make sure you keep working your contacts, the alumni network and think of creative alternatives. Can you go back to school for another degree? Can you do some work abroad? Can you work on a family business or try a start-up? I would also highly recommend using services like Doostang to expand your network and stay up to date on opportunities that are a match for you.

And there you have everything you need to make your career prosper in this economy – some exceptional inside advice on achieving success in today’s market and Doostang to give you the best career opportunities.

How to Dress for an Interview – 5 Job Search Dress Code Must-Haves

For many of us former students who gladly roamed campus in yesterday’s sweats, fashion is a foreign world tread only when absolutely necessary.  So, in order to make things easier: here are a few staple items that every job seeker should have in the closet.  The great thing about staple items is that they never really go out of style.  Invest in quality pieces now, and you will be able to wear them for years to come.

1. Conservative Suit

A nice, conservative suit is an absolute must-have.  If you have the money, get it tailored to fit. The fabric should be a neutral or solid color – black and navy are the most common, but there’s no reason why you can’t have a little fun and go with a nice taupe or pinstripe.  When considering different types of ties, appliqués, or lapels, remember that the simpler the better.  Once you’re hired, you will have all the time in the world to impress your coworkers with your amazing sense of style.  Stick to the basics during your interview to convey a professional, polished look.  Women can wear a pant or skirt suit and should always wear sheer, neutral hosiery underneath – keep an extra pair in your purse in case you run the hosiery in transit.  It never hurts to be prepared!

2. A neatly pressed blouse or shirt

If you’re a man, a white, long-sleeved 100% cotton shirt with button cuffs is always acceptable.  For women, blouses or shirts should be white or ivory and conservative.  The neckline should coordinate with the lines of your jacket lapel.  Stay away from shirts that are too tight or revealing – while it might land you a date, it won’t land you a job!

3. A simple, professional watch

A watch is a great piece of flair that you can wear without worrying about committing a fashion faux pas.  Be sure to disable any functions that would cause the watch to beep during an interview.  While watches are by no means necessary as a means of telling time (now that everyone and their grandmother has a cell phone), watches are still an important part of an interview wardrobe.  Foregoing a watch can effectively say “I am never on time, ever.”  This writer recommends eco-drive watches: they’re solar powered and can run for years without having to change the battery!

4. Dress Shoes

You should invest in a nice pair of interview shoes in a dark solid color that coordinates with your suit.  For women, shoes should always be closed toed with a heel of 2.5” or less.  Avoid anything shiny or textured – try for leather or synthetic fabrics that will not draw attention.   For men, just stay away from loafers!  Classic, tie-up dress shoes are always in style.  Your belt should match your shoes.

5. A simple bag or briefcase

One thing about briefcases: if you don’t have a reason to carry one, don’t.  But you should have some kind of bag with you to hold your resume, your phone, extra hosiery and everything else necessary or superfluous that you will want to carry with you on interview day.  Stick with neutral colors – a dark leather is always best.  Stay away from anything ridiculously large or small, and from messenger bags that sling across your body.  Over or undersized bags can make your entire outfit look unprofessional, and a slung-over bag will wrinkle your nicely pressed suit.  For women, if you’re not looking to invest in a bag specifically for interviewing and professional purposes, try getting something that will work for both work and play – like a neutral color Longchamp bag.

Beyond these basic items, there are a wide range of things you can do to spruce up your look for an interview and make you look and feel your very best.  Be sure that your hair is neatly cut and styled and your nails are clean and cut short.  Always err on the side of caution when interviewing, but the great thing about many of these staple items is that they can also be paired with fun, colorful accessories during the work week to add some professional excitement to your wardrobe.  These are working items that you can continue to wear and enjoy for years.

If there’s one thing I learned from years of watching What Not to Wear, it’s that fashion does make a difference in the way we look and feel.  Dress for Success, and your confidence will reflect that effort!

Farewell, fashionistas -

Your interview style gurus,

Doostang Success – Resource for Making “Next-Step” Decisions

Veronica
Princeton, 2008

“I signed up for Doostang when I was ironically laid off from a Los Angeles-based investment bank due to a merger (I was an M&A analyst). Actually, I’d signed up for Doostang before I was laid off (rumors!), but after the layoff, I went Premium. Doostang was an extraordinary resource for helping me make a few “next-step” decisions:

1. What industry was hiring? Not offering unpaid internships and switchboard gigs, but hiring smart, capable grads who were interested in real positions.

2. Where were these industries hiring? I was considering a move to New York City, and decided that I’d make my mind up depending on where the opportunities were.

3. What opportunities are out there that I may not have thought of before? Doostang’s “You might also like” feature led me down a variety of fruitful paths, pointing me in the directions of companies or industries that I might have never considered. Maybe it was a copywriting gig for a retail company; maybe it was working as a creative liaison for a non-profit. There were all kinds of opportunities that I might have missed otherwise.

Ultimately, after checking Doostang.com for a few weeks in Los Angeles (and receiving the e-mails to fill in what I missed), I came to realize that the jobs I really lusted after were in Manhattan. So I made the switch.

Once in New York City, the interview requests started streaming in. And through the interview process, I was able to whittle down which industry I was most interested in, and land two offers. It took just a month and a half, and I couldn’t be happier about where I’ve ended up.

Now, I’m working in advertising. It is a welcome change, and Doostang was a very welcome guide throughout the entire process.

Thanks!”

- Thank you, Veronica! And congratulations, glad we could help!
