Why EliteExchange

“No wonder competition to secure a job in investment banking is so intense. It’s not enough to be graduating from Oxford or Cambridge with a first class degree and to speak four languages. I am told by several banks that one of the ways they whittle down thousands of applicants to the 200-300 that they interview each year is by looking for relevant work experience, or internships.”
- Financial Times


Sure, the market is terrible. Hiring is way down. Some banks no longer exist!

But no matter how bad it gets, firms always need to make a certain number of entry-level hires. And there's always turnover at senior levels.

Let's face it - don't complain more on the market. What's stopping you from breaking in?

Context - knowing what it's really like getting into the industry and working there - separates those who get in and advance from those who struggle and never get anywhere.

Existing career trading firms miss the mark because they are not led by industry insiders, and because they don't give candid advice on what to do and what not to do.

EliteExchange is all about helping by referring you to a top finance firm if you are qualified. Here what you will be experiencing:

  • Learn what people in finance actually do - from people who have worked in the field
  • Network your way in without embarrassing yourself or wasting time on ineffective strategies
  • Craft a winning resume and land interviews wherever you want
  • Develop your “story”, ace your interviews and land offers
  • Maintain your sanity once you get into the industry
  • Avoid getting laid off - or find work again if you are
  • Land exit opportunities - whether leading financial firms or something else altogether
All you need to do is take action and convince your potential employers and EliteExchange that you can. EliteExchange helps push your resume to reach target financial firms by leveraging existing relationship.

Surging Need for Talents

Nowadays, the global economy is changing rapidly and is in need of people who can handle financials as well as actual knowledge/operations basis.

Moreover, with globalization fully entrenched as the norm of business, and with China increasingly open its domestic economy to foreign participation, most recruiters - especially those top-notch international groups - regard professional work experience (more of elite educational background) as differentiating advantage for their hiring standards.

Limited Graduate Roles

With increased competition for a limited number of graduate roles, and employers being even more selective in their recruitment processes, those looking to build a career in the City, must strive to gain the best possible experience and to set themselves apart from the crowd.

Leverage Resource

Seeing this demand, at the center of the world’s financial marketplace, the EliteExchange team formed strategic alliance with some of the most renowned financial gurus in the world to bridge the needs of both sides.

The internship takes into account not only the skill domain necessary for business elites in a global economy, but also the latest business know-hows in Asian financial sector.

Analysis and investment philosophies are highly concentrated whilst offering a series of specialized on-job training, an optional field exploration opportunity and of course valuable access to senior personnel from the world’s respected and renowned financial and regulatory institutions.

Diversity

EliteExchange community presents a global village in mini-nature. The majority of our applicants come from around the world, representing more than 100 universities. This ensures a truly unique communication and hence creates synergy.
