It has long been accepted that new entrants to our industry seek their first investment banking job with no prior experience, skills or knowledge of the industry's entry-level job position, as analyst. It matters not whether they are career changers, or even an Ivy League MBA graduate... all will lack the fundamental skills, or at least any useful level of proficiency that would allow the bank to avoid the costly months of training that lie ahead.
With the help of our job assignment simulator and our industry and institutional sponsors, we hope to one day change this trend. In the interim, our subscribers will enjoy an unprecedented advantage over their peers by being able to learn, master, and log industry skills and work experience before ever having spent a day inside an investment bank… Your dedication will show in your e-portfolio of completed assignments, which can be made available for review by any employer which you authorize us to release it to. That e-work log will serve to take the employer’s guess work out of the equation, remove their need to gamble with others and sell you and your accomplishments for you… You will clearly have the hands-down advantage over any job candidate that lacked the foresight to follow your exemplary pre-employment preparation. You’ll have removed the risk and be viewed as an asset from day one.
