How can a fresh graduate get an offer from a securities firm without strong connections?

Recently fueled by idol dramas, the workplace elites in the film are no longer limited to the "general managers" of family businesses. Professional differentiation is mainly in the financial sector, such as accountants, consulting groups, and securities dealers. , it gives the impression that these people have rigorous analytical minds, know every number well, and go out feeling like a winner in life.

In "Ode to Joy", Guan Ju'er relied on his parents' relationship to enter a very well-known securities company. In order to pass the internship period and work overtime every day, he wanted to use all his efforts to stay in this company. Company, even Senior Brother Lin, who was Guan Guan’s “top student” when he was studying, felt envious when he heard that Guan Guan had joined Huaxin Securities as an intern (some people analyzed that she worked for Morgan Stanley Huaxin Securities). In such a When a company becomes a regular company, the salary will basically double (according to a survey, even the annual salary of ordinary regular employees of small and medium-sized securities companies is around 300,000). Guan Guan told Qiu Yingying that the salary can at least double after taking the CPA exam. In fact, it is also aimed at the securities companies after becoming a regular company. Standardly speaking.

Many female students in school, especially those majoring in accounting and finance, aim to enter a securities firm. You can see that even a non-985/211 undergraduate student can get in. Just work harder and do something. Is it possible to develop a relationship?

First of all, let’s take a look, who are the people who can enter the brokerage firm?

The first batch, the children of the second generation of officials or the second generation of rich people, their own resources are part of the investment banking resources, and their entry can provide internal resources to the company.

The second batch, elites from various industries. For example, people from the Big Four accounting firms, law firms, consulting companies, elite entrepreneurs, etc. These people's talents and connections can meet the needs of PE/VC process operations.

The third batch includes the best students from top universities at home and abroad. Their value lies in their elite school background and comprehensive abilities.

It can be seen from this that Guan Guan belongs to the first type. Although his parents did not explain in detail, "working in a big company" does not satisfy the first point, so it can only be said that Guan Guan's parents are currently Working within the system, there are some resources that can send daughters with undergraduate degrees from ordinary colleges to work at securities firms.

Most people pass the third batch to become excellent and enter securities firms. So what kind of person can enter a securities firm as an intern?

In fact, there are three keys: school, internship and certificate.

The first is the school, which includes undergraduate and master's degrees. Except for the resumption of diplomatic relations between Beijing and Qing Dynasty or prestigious overseas universities, currently securities companies rarely recruit undergraduates, unless there are special circumstances, such as an undergraduate student from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics who has very rich internship experience and enters the New Third Board line of the top ten investment banking departments, but the premise is He encountered the bull market at the same time through CPA and CFA.

Therefore, most students who want to enter securities companies still choose graduate students from well-known domestic 985 universities or overseas Ivy League schools. The majors of graduate students are mainly accounting, financial law.

The second is internship. If you are interested in entering a securities firm, you should take good care of the internship company. Don’t go for part-time jobs or tutoring internships that have no technical content and have nothing to do with your future work (remember, internships are for entering a securities firm, not for money), and strive for You can go to accounting firms, securities companies, fund companies and other places. Don't care about the size of the company and whether there is any return. The key is the content of the internship.

Finally, there is the examination, such as the Judicial Examination and CPA. If you are a legal major, you must pass the Judicial Examination. If you are a financial and accounting major, start studying CPA in your senior year and strive to pass the CPA before the third year of graduate school. You can find the job of your choice.

So to enter a securities firm, academic qualifications are first, internship second, and certification third. If your undergraduate school is relatively ordinary, you need to make up for it through master's internship and certification.

At this time, you are equivalent to having half a foot in the securities firm, and then there is the performance during the internship. Guan Juer is a representative, and he requires himself to be a formal employee, working overtime when he should go on a business trip. , the tasks given to you by your boss must be completed. Don’t seek innovation but don’t make mistakes (this is why Guan Guan will worry about not being able to stay if you make a mistake). Don’t offend others. Generally, if your emotional intelligence is not too low or your internship performance is too poor, you can still stay. However, if you are told that you cannot retain the position at a critical moment, don't be discouraged. Maybe the quota is blocked by a related account, so you can continue to the next stop. These experiences will make you stand out among the applicants when you are looking for a job.

Success is reserved for those who are prepared. If someone enters a very high-quality company, connections are one thing, but more comes from their own efforts, such as Guan Ju'er, without her as an intern. How can I be retained despite my hard work?
