Career Goals
Please discuss how you plan to achieve your short-term and long-term career goals. What challenges will you face and how will you leverage your professional and academic experiences to achieve these goals?
My very first short-term goal is to secure an admission into graduate school for a master in finance program, where I intend to enhance my current knowledge and build professional networks that will steer me to a supervisory position in the Structured Finance Group of an established financial institution such as Latham & Watkins or Sandler & O'Neill. I look forth to supervising a group of between 5 and 8 by the end of my degree program. This will not only give me an opportunity to market my skills within the company and beyond, but will also be a door-opener for the realization of my middle-term goal, which is to be the leader of the structured finance group for the company I work for, supervising at least fifty employees. In the long-term, I look forth to occupying the senior most position of leadership in the company, where I will be able to position it as one of the leading advisors in the private label asset-based securitization market internationally, and make it a model organization for beginner companies. I aspire to use my position to build an organizational culture that appreciates the role of the community in the financial market, and looks out to make it a better place by transforming previously-underdeveloped zones into flourishing industrial centers. I...
I admire the dynamic nature of the financial market, and I admire structured finance because it keeps up with this dynamism; it keeps the money market going, and we are able to enjoy the financial products that we have today because someone kept pace with dynamism and accurately predicted that we would need such and such a product at some point in future. I want to be that person in future. Accounting doesn't accord me that, which is why I decided to take a shift and major in finance.
I got an opportunity to work as an intern at XXX Corporation between XX and XX, and it is then that I realized that I lack some basic finance and marketing knowhow, which I reckon a master in finance program will help me develop. Moreover, I will need to gain the strongest possible managerial skills if I am to actualize my long-term goal of becoming a leading figure in the structured finance industry. Through its hand-on workshops, the CIRM program at…
My goal is to continuously work as hard and honest as I can to achieve my additional long-term goal, which is to climb the corporate ladder. Opportunities will arise where I have to prove myself and push to the next level, and I am prepared to do this. I have selected this goal because it fits my personality, my ambition, my interests, and is the career that I want
In my senior year I will have the opportunity to conduct independent research on a topic of my choice. My senior project will focus on a specific area within my chosen discipline and to carry out the project I will learn about the protocols of academic research. Moreover, my project will involve creativity and collaboration with classmates and will demand academic diligence. The skills I develop throughout my senior
Once I have finished college, I will look for a junior position at an accounting firm. With my accounting job experience and good achievements, I am confident that I have good prospects. Once I have been hired, I will prove myself by delivering an excellent service. My hope is that the firm that hires me will offer advancement opportunities, towards which I will then work. Once I have about one
Career Goals My career goals can best be outlined in a format that reveals short, medium, and long-term aspirations. At this point, it might be more helpful to work backwards from the most long-range goal to the shortest-range goal. This reverse progression will help show why each step in my personal plan is necessary in fulfilling my ultimate objectives as a visionary, leader, and entrepreneur. Upon retirement, I am teaching at least
competitive society it is increasingly difficult to get ahead without a proper education. An education is necessary for providing the foundation for success in life and in one's career. Without an education students lack the breadth of knowledge, experiences and insight necessary to excel in a competitive workforce. At the right University a student has the opportunity to interact with diverse populations, express their ideas and learn from others.
Like any person with interest in the financial services sector, I am interested in maximizing my value, in terms of the quality of my education and the value I hope to bring to my future clients upon graduation as a CPA (Certified Public Accountant). As an institution, Marquette possesses strong academic and ethical values, and I hope that I will be able to infuse this sense of obligation and
