Breaking into Ibanking after college: How?

<p>I had never really considered Investment Banking until recently, I've worked as a Operations/Management Consultant for the past 5 years for PWC/IBM, I majored in Engineering in college, I'm wondering how could someone like me break into the industry, and what will the pay look like? </p>

<p>If I get an MBA, and specialized in Finance, will that work or will IBanks typically look for work experience in the industry before MBA as well?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Fly into JFK. Take the Airtrain to the J train. Take the J to Broad Street. Ask around for 85 Broad Street. Walk in.</p>

<p>Just kidding.</p>

<p>Bump this... </p>

<p>Just wanted to know if anyone knows what kind of level I would come in, in terms of pay and if people like me can even get a position in IB, it seems to be an industry that does recruiting solely through University.</p>

<p>Probably because to college students, it seems like a glamorous position. Only so many people make it into IBanking anyways. A lot of these people only enter IBanking because it is a position that offers good pay and good exit options. I think if you went to a top MBA, you could probably land a job in IBanking. I'd say it's all about whether you interview well etc. Also interning.</p>
