List of Careers BESIDES IB

<p>Hi! This forum seems flooded with people eager to become an investment banker (which is seemingly impossible to do). Let's make a running list of careers in the business world other than IB. Also, you can leave a brief description. [copy and paste the ones before you and then add]</p>

<ol>
<li>Accountant</li>
</ol>

<p>Too many.</p>

<p>Lol wut? The business major forum is flooded with posts about accounting, not investment banking. </p>

<p>But I’ll bite:</p>

<ol>
<li>Accountant</li>
<li>Consultant</li>
<li>Commercial Banking</li>
<li>Corporate Finance (in house)</li>
<li>Marketing</li>
</ol>

<p>eh screw it. Too many to name.</p>

<p>the top students in my school go into IB, middle 50% go into consulting, and lower 25% go into accounting.</p>

<p>I looked at the Haas data and let’s just say you are not very accurate. Only 46% of the class even reported placement and of that 11% went into all consulting, 11% IB, 32% accounting, 26% other finance jobs. So 50% might be unemployed.</p>

<p>Wait, what? Does “other finance jobs” include marketing and anything outside of finance/accounting? Wouldn’t the fact that not everyone reports back make a difference as well?</p>
