<p>Hey what is exactly investment banking? Is it the same thing as trading stocks for people? Whats the best major if you want to do IB if you dont have a such program at your school?</p>
<p>Yes, investment bankers are basically stockbrokers. You nailed it.</p>
<p>lol (10 char)</p>
<p>nevermind. i was confused with a different term. investment management. wouldve been awkward when i got my internship from jpmorgan to use the wrong word, ya know?</p>
<p>actually i have a real question. I have a friend who is an engineer but got hired by a huge company in japan as an IB. I hear the employers like engineers better because of their analytical skills. is that true?</p>
