Asset Management - Are my up to date work experiences good enough?Disclaimer:
First of all I would like to say that I sincerely thought I was going to pursue a career at the Bar. Therefore, if my work experiences seem a bit law-ish that is the reason why.
My work experiences consist of three pre-internships/insight days at top investment banks, two barrister chamber work experiences, numerous law first year programmes, countless volunteer work, some politics work experience and my retail history.
I have secured two, 2 month internships in asset management firms (one this year and one for early next year) and another barristers chambers work experience. The latter I applied for last year.
I am eligible to apply for internships late this year to next year. I have good grades at A-level too.
Any advice? I am hoping to apply for the big firms.
Many thanks. -

Re: Asset Management - Are my up to date work experiences good enough?True, hopefully my work experiences lined up will dissolve that argument. Other than that, do you think I stand a chance?(Original post by TomasK)

Re: Asset Management - Are my up to date work experiences good enough?LOL, you got all of this from my first post on TSR? I am not one dimensional at all.(Original post by i_hate_teeth)
OP seems very career orientated and focused, almost to the point of being one dimensional. -

You don't dispute the point about being career orientated and focused though? -
