tl;dr: How can I get into investment banking? It's seems like it's impossible to find an entry level position.
I don't want to get stuck at my current company.

Go back to Chile and stop stealing American jobs. When you get there, kill yourself.

Why would you want to work in an investment bank, they work ~100 h/week, you'll look like 50 when you hit 30 and there is no guarantee that you are going to climb the ladder, much less, without a ivy league MBA.

Fool, you never had a chance! You or your kind are not part of master plan. Your only job is to say yes sir or no sir.

Connections, either personal or through university. You can't just show up and apply, fuckface.
Ethan Richardson
First, ask yourself why you want this career in this city.
Without knowing your age, I would just btfo of nyc and start a new simple life in a rural district.

Apart from IB being shit-tier and not the Hollywood bollocks you fantasise about, if you were determined to get into it, why wouldn't you start in your home country with one of the firms and then try and leverage yourself into a transfer to America at some point? Seems like that would be the easier route.
Joseph Rodriguez
please don't cross post your blog onto any more sub sections of this site that don't give a fuck. kill yourself

Hilarious all the salty gringos ITT.
Sounds like you need to grow a pair to be honest though. 75k for just out of college with so little connections sounds decent, settle for a bit a look for jobs when you feeling ready, your history sounds like you're rushing things and have some anxiety.

This OP I am an NYC native and can't find a job to save my life. >Retail >Starbucks >McDonalds >Temp agencies
Retail and temp agencies are the biggest waste of time. Have to work your ass off to get the position. They tell you they want all your avaliable hours and to be on call. Then the proceed to give you less than 20 hours a week. Worse with temp agencies they just waste your time, And the ones that don't have you doing slave labor for 9$/hr alongside Illegal aliens(Downward pressure on wages, because the employer can boss them around and they bend over backwards).
I mean fuck your complaining about 70k/yr. I am taking out 5k per semester to go to college now because anything is better than working in an unsafe factory paying min. wage. thats got Dominicans breaking hips, feet, hands and backs. Seriously fuck you

Investment banks recruit from feeder schools, much like tech companies. If you want it, get in on that.
Only a tiny few are brought in from outside the path.
