Do you really need to join a finance club in uni to land a banking job? 🏦 Every year, 200+ undergrads battle for just 20 spots in elite finance clubs at NUS, NTU, SMU. Why? ✅ Helpful? Absolutely. ❌ Necessary? Not always. I joined the EYE investment club at SMU many years ago. To me, it helped me more with my knowledge, making new friends than landing a job in a bank. What matters more? → 3–4 solid internships → Real-world experience → Clear communication & drive If you can get into a finance club, go for it. If you can’t, don’t sweat it. The finance world doesn’t just hire club members. It hires doers. --- Article ref: https://str.sg/38Mb2 P/s: Found a REALLY young picture of me probably when I was in uni, I definitely can tell that I've aged! Lol. #CristelleConnects
