Starting a career in finance? Watch this first!
This video breaks down five critical things I wish I had done differently when I started out, based on real-world lessons I learned after graduating with a Masterโ€™s in Financial Economics from Erasmus University Rotterdam. I reveal what truly makes a difference when entering the field now. Back then, I thought top grades and a solid degree were enough. But todayโ€™s finance world has changed. Employers want skills, not just certificates.
Youโ€™ll learn why GPA matters less than your ability to build financial models, analyze companies, and communicate insights. I also explain why networking earlyโ€”even before landing your first jobโ€”can fast-track your career. I cover the importance of building and sharing a portfolio of finance projects, and how a clear, goal-based learning plan is more effective than random online videos.
Plus, I challenge the myth that success only happens at big-name companies. In fact, starting at a smaller firm can give you more responsibility, faster growth, and the experience that top employers value most.
Whether youโ€™re a student, career changer, or just finance-curious, these tips will help you make smarter moves and avoid common pitfalls.
