Long story short - graduated from Purdue with a 2.51 GPA. Dropped out halfway as a chemical engineer, came back and finished as an electrical engineer. Graduated with $168,000 of debt.
Somehow I got lucky and got a job at a privately held electrical engineering consulting firm and I’m 3 years in as of this March. I’m pulling in $90k now, as a contractor/consultant for a major oil company - I work on their land based refinery doing power systems analysis.
That being said, I really want to get into banking or consulting, but I don’t have the technical skills or grades for it.
Would companies be able to overlook my credentials? I think grad school is impossible. I don’t think they would ask for GPA after my first job, but I have no experience with finance or programming…
