Between the two, I'd take HK. Much more opportunities there.
For example, many Australia-based boutiques are now setting up offices in HK to tap in to less "worldly" high net worth investors (from an insto and retail sales and ECM perspective), which is pretty important. I think we'll see more...
Socially expected - definitely not needed in my field though.
Depends what sort of jobs you're after. Had a friend just go over to a property/construction firm - Canto there was important.
Re: Out of these two "qualifications" which is more highly likelly to INVESTMENT BANK
What are you talking about kid?
Let me see... this is what you said when Newbie said he works in the investment banking division of a retail bank.
"Unfortunately there's no such thing. Institutional banking...
Wrong again! Another noob.
Here's the real trick. Learn mando, or you've just lost 60% of the job opps.
Gee you kids talk with so much authority but have nfi what you're saying.
Lol that's the last place you'd want to work, let alone in HK. Good luck with your $20k bonuses. Not sure if you can afford some A Testoni shoes with that.
a) Yes UTS is absolute crap. Don't even put resumes like that in front of me
b) In fact studying is mostly crap. Feel sorry for you. Go make money instead of spend money.

newbie, that's why I don't bother posting on this forum.
Only people like serimfy bother. Look at all these kids... not even sure why you bother explaining to them. In the meantime, what should I do...

LOL I love it when noobs who have no idea say wrong things like it's a fact.
Re: Out of these two "qualifications" which is more highly likelly to INVESTMENT BANK
LOL hilarious I think I might have met your friend last month then!!! Went to 8.5 last month (took leave to go to HK to look at properties) and was introduced to this nightclub ib dude, though I wasn't sure...
There's a lot of related jobs that work far less than big 4 and get paid more than double. I have roped myself in to similar jobs in the past 3 years (started my first year at a bulge bracket).
To put in to perspective, the job I'm on now I've been there for a year. I work less than 50 hours...
Best advice I can give you kids, is follow your dreams. The money will come.
That said hedge funds/ibank/trading does give you the opportunity to make your first puny little bucket of gold. If you use it well, could do good for you. Off to HK next week to pick up a few more properties now on...
Ahhh Serimfy you won't believe how many payslips I've seen of people with 4 years, 6 years, 10 years in the industry these days, inclusive of bonuses if tha that helps.
How naive we were back when we were young. Anyway might come back in another 3-4 months and chat with some more naive faces...
