Some people will tell you that asset management is the coolest field in finance, myself included. And if you want to land your first asset management job there are a few things you can do to give yourself the best chances. Whether you’re just looking to hold a job for a couple years to build your resume, or you want to find a long-term career, these tips can set you off on the right foot.

But first, the best tip I can give to land a job in any of these businesses is to contact them. I have discussed this strategy in other videos, but you basically need to make it your job to reach out to as many firms as you possibly can.
