Name:<\/strong> Madison Brenchak<\/span><\/p>\n

Class Year: <\/strong>2022<\/span><\/p>\n

Title: <\/strong>Private Banking Analyst<\/span><\/p>\n

Organization Name: <\/strong>JPMorgan<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

1. In one sentence, what does your job entail? <\/strong><\/p>\n

My job is client facing, which involves creating decks and pitchbooks, executing trades, and proposing investment ideas all to help individuals and families plan their wealth to achieve their goals<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. What planned and unplanned events connected you to your industry and your first employer after Holy Cross? How did you learn\/decide it was a good fit for you?\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Planned events that helped me include: Finance Club and HCSIF, especially Finance Bootcamp with visit to NYC and touring firms, active networking, and attending workshops at HC.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unplanned events that helped me include: Attending JPMorgan\u2019s women\u2019s initiative event for students, which led to early round interviews.<\/span><\/p>\n

I knew it was a great fit at Finance Bootcamp when we visited JPM Private Bank my sophomore year. The floor we visited and met alumni on as a group, is in fact the exact floor I work on now!<\/span><\/p>\n

I made the most of my summer internship which really helped me decide it was a great fit! After the initial learning curve and adjustments, I felt I enjoyed the work I was producing and that was affirmative in my decision to accept the full time offer.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. What were you involved in when you were on campus?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was involved in HCSIF, Finance Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters (SPUD), Spring Break Immersion, Society of St. Peter and Paul, alter serving, and the Pre-Business Program.<\/span><\/p>\n

I worked in Campion in the chaplain\u2019s office at the front desk!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. What was your major and how did it affect your career decisions?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I majored in Economics, which helped me develop perspective on the world and markets that provided a great foundation for pursuing Finance. However, I felt behind with my investment knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. What are one or two skills that you developed at Holy Cross that you use in your work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Connecting with people: putting myself out there, networking, and interacting with lots of different people helped me develop speaking skills that are extremely helpful at work. Whether talking to a client on the phone, or presenting my thoughts on the market to my boss, it is helpful to be able to speak and hold conversations with different people.<\/span><\/p>\n

Independence: learning to schedule my day to be most productive helps me be efficient and multi-task at work. You have to be the one responsible with follow ups and communicating with various people on a multitude of tasks. You need to prioritize by urgency and complexity which can be a challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6. What advice do you have for students on campus today?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do not delay in networking or simply put minimal effort to \u201ccheck it off the box.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t leave a coffee chat or phone call with an action item, it is a waste of everyone\u2019s time. Be intentional about your questions and be enthusiastic. Make sure to keep up consistent dialogue with alumni, don\u2019t just reach out once.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is all very overwhelming, so take it one step at a time. Always know there are upperclassmen and young grads who have just been in your shoes and are happy to help!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
