Probably should have tried harder to land an investment banking job, but my complete lack of finance experience hurt me.
In working in retail banking right now. I wouldn't mind jumping over to investment at some point, but I'm not sure how to get there.

In my (nonbusiness) observations, these guys bullshite their way into the first job, and then bullshite from there up the ladder. I’m not saying they’re not smart guys, but they have the gift of gab, and the technical skills to do the job.

Do not mean to burst your bubble, but its going to be incredibly hard if not impossible to get on with a IB unless its some small boutique, or you have a Petroleum Engineering degree and work for an O+G IB. IBs typically recruit analysts straight from Ivy League schools or MBAs from Ivy League schools. Goodluck though.
