Scroll to see replies

this was in my experience. i didnt apply for these top of range consulting or ib jobs. but i did apply for about 100 finance/accounting jobs various size companies. pretty much all want a relevant degree 2:1 or above. so if i had a 2:2 in history ya be heading right for job centre in my experinece

What? Who said anything about a 2:2

Weird how a degree that isn’t “real” is so attractive to investment banks and MBBs... But obviously the recruiters must all just be stupid.

I didn't actually mean that, it was just a joke.

What are the best paying jobs straight out of graduation (from a top uni) in the first few years?

Preferably ones that offer a great challenge and have good exit opportunities but also give you the opportunity to gain transferable skills for an eventual shift into entrepreneurship.

Edit: Doing History, so software engineering and IT is off bounds
