Your major does not matter as much as you might think.
Generally, most employers have a hierarchy when it comes to hiring and it is as per below: Brand name uni > Grades > Major (preference for demanding and rigorous majors in some companies) So in all likelihood, a Harvard Lit graduate with Cum Laude would stand a better shot with Mckinsey than a local grad with FCH in econs. |
if i am 18, i would probably have gone for the usual big earning degrees.
but if not i would have gone for nursing or sit x ray technician, work in sg 3 years, move to aus, work there 3 years, move to usa, work there 3 years, move to canada, japan, nz...these jobs are so in demand u get to pick and choose where u wanna work and they give u a scholarsihp like for free lol. |
Just want to share the current career path of my peers (and myself) that graduated from NUS Economics in 2011-12 (Honours included).
Those that did 3 Years (myself included): Buy-side M&A JC (Economics) Teacher Insurance (freelance) agent DXO (not sure his role) MAS policy research Bank Ops (settlement, KYC) Trader (base metals) EDB (scholarship) Baker (she found her passion thereafter) After being in the working world for 7 years, i regretted taking Econs instead of Business or Finance as i used them more in my current career. |

Sorry to hijack the thread. I’m a local U law grad with second lower who’s trying to pivot into the banking industry. Aside from compliance, what other routes can I take? I realise I’ll have to do either MO, BO or sales so any input would be much appreciated!
