Xaviera Ho, 29, spent years working towards her dream job at JPMorgan. But two years after landing her dream job as an investment analyst, she quit. That was when I realized that I wanted to go to business school and pursue a career in finance. During my four years in business school, I did several finance-related internships, including stints with an investment bank and a hedge fund. The branding, exposure, and networking opportunities that you get from working at a top bank like JPMorgan can be a great booster to your career.
