4 Steps To Land a High Finance Role

How to successfully land a 2025 High Finance role:

1. Start Networking Early: You need to establish strong personal & professional relationships with analysts / associates who can refer you up to their seniors & to HR. It takes time to nurture these relationships over coffee / calls

2. Gain Relevant Work Experience: Bolster your work experience and CV / Resume by doing a relevant finance role (boutique bank, middle office role at a bulge bracket, big 4 transactions, etc) that can serve as a bridge to high finance roles

3. Start preparing Early: Technical and behavioral questions take time to prepare for. Just like an exam, studying and practicing early propels your success. You need to cover the broad topics (M&A, LBO, accounting, DCF, EV questions, etc.) in a deep manner to understand the concepts rather than understand. Make sure to start applying (proper CV), networking, and practicing right now

4. Find A Mentor: Have someone whose been in your shoes and successfully landed your dream roles and learn from their systems and strategies. Don't waste time reinventing the wheel, risking your chances of success rather have someone guide you through this competitive process from start to finish.
