I knew early on that I wanted to pursue a career in finance. Specifically, I have wanted to work with the capital markets. I have found that I am good with the quantitative side of financial analysis. I also find the capital markets extremely interesting. Analogous to the inner workings of a clock, the financial markets are dependent on so many individual components. For my career aspirations, I had hoped to play a role that would shape and change the markets.What was the best part of the program?
One of the best parts about Swiss Finance for me were the simulations. The experience of tight deadlines, working with a team, and having to apply all your skills and think creatively is thrilling. This is what makes the program so unique; you learn the theories and formulas, but the way they are really tested is through application. I found this learning method really satisfying because you could see how everything you are working hard to learn is applied. The other part of the program that I personally enjoyed was the people I interacted with. My university has a strong entrepreneurial focus and diverse student body, but during the Swiss Finance program you closely interact with people from every corner of the world. The collective amount of drive and ambition was huge. Career outlook: A business only runs as well as the level of communications between the individuals. I began to learn that there is more to life than just getting a job and doing well in school. In the end, you deal with people. The relationships you cultivate are the true benefits from both work and school.
