I used to use this site back when I was doing A Levels and applying for uni and for graduate schemes and it helped me a LOT! Now I want to inspire and let you guys know that if you work hard and prepare in advance you can get that life you want.
I graduated with a degree in Accounting and Finance from a Russell Group uni and now I'm working in a product control role at a major investment bank. I love my job and find it interesting and stimulating. I wake up every day and I know that there will be new challenges to overcome, new problems to solve and great people to work with. I want to help you and inspire you to achieve your dreams, whatever that might be.

What work experience did you do at Uni to secure the job position?
What a-levels did you get?

Thank you, I got AAB. I took part in societies at my university and was part of the committee in one of them. I also did volunteering for a few good causes and did an internship at an investment bank, which I managed to convert into a place on their graduate scheme after performing well.

A few questions
1) if you don't mind me asking, which uni?
2) did you have any experience before you got the job?
3) how long have you been working there? What was your starting salary?
4) I presume you are working in London, if you're not from London, are you renting? If so did you find it difficult to be able to rent in London?
And finally how much do you expect to be on in 5 years?
Thanks in advance

How?
Teach us how to earn that much at 24, sensei!
Or is you working for a bank the reason why you earn so much at the age of 24?

I'm not a huge fan of them! Luckily they pester the Managing Directors more and leave us alone. I respect the work they do though.

2) Yes, I did an internship.
3) I have been working there for three years. I was earning £30k plus a small bonus.
4) I rent a flat with three flat mates who I knew from uni. The rent is quite low since we're sharing so I'm not finding it difficult.
I'm hoping to be promoted to a Vice President level in five years, which can push up my total compensation to near six figures.

Congratulations on your achievements.
I'm 22 years old and things didn't go well in University.
I am now actively looking for an apprenticeship.
Would you recommend an apprenticeship in Customer Service or Business Administration?
I prefer Customer Service because Business Administration is a good area but it is not a physical job, as it is being stuck in an office all day. Do you think I can get far in life if I do an apprenticeship in Customer Service or would you recommend Business Administration? Your opinion please?
Your help is appreciated.

Yeah, the product controller at one of my clients hates me at the moment... I think I've called her about stuff several times a day last week... I apologise on behalf of all auditors for the extra work we generate

Too bad 50k doesn't get you the life you want in London (at all).
