Sara Thomas, a recent graduate from the University of Chicago, has made headlines for securing a prestigious role at Morgan Stanley before even receiving her diploma. At just 22 years old, Sara is set to start her career as an investment banking analyst at the renowned financial institution. Her journey serves as a testament to the allure of Wall Street careers for Gen Z individuals, despite the demanding nature of the industry.

In a recent interview, Sara shared insights into her path to landing a coveted position in investment banking. She emphasized the importance of networking, active participation in campus finance clubs, and paying attention to often overlooked sections of a resume. These factors played a crucial role in helping her stand out among other candidates and secure the role at Morgan Stanley.

The process of breaking into the finance industry can be daunting for many young professionals. Sara’s experience mirrored the common narrative of early recruitment and rigorous interview processes. She engaged with alumni and networked with industry professionals to increase her visibility and enhance her chances of securing interviews at top financial institutions.

Sara’s dedication and strategic approach paid off when she received an internship offer at Morgan Stanley, following successful rounds of interviews and assessments. Prior to this opportunity, she had gained valuable experience through internships at Bain Capital and Ariel Investments, which further bolstered her credentials and prepared her for a career in investment banking.

Reflecting on her college experience, Sara noted that while she briefly considered a career in academia, she ultimately thrived in the fast-paced environment of finance. She actively participated in clubs and internships related to startups and entrepreneurship, showcasing her commitment to building industry knowledge and expertise.

Recruiters value well-rounded individuals who can genuinely speak about their experiences and hobbies.

Looking ahead, Sara has ambitious long-term goals of potentially working for herself or starting her own company. She remains focused on continuous learning and growth within the finance industry, eager to engage with colleagues and expand her skill set.

Sara’s story serves as an inspiration to young professionals navigating the competitive landscape of finance careers.
