Nomura International Plc (Europe) Perspective


Reasons to work for us

  • We are shifting strategic direction to become a more client-driven, business-focused firm.  By creating change in the capital markets, we aim to further the development of the overall market and in turn create opportunities for growth at Nomura.

Company: Nomura International

What course did you study at university and how did you become interested in investment banking?  Were there any preconceived notions of the industry that you had prior to joining the firm?

I read Financial Economics at the University of St Andrews and have always been interested in financial markets. The more that I learned, the more I realized it was for me and in my opinion, no other work environment offers the same dynamic environment and driven atmosphere. A DAY IN THE LIFE
Name: JULIE WITZSCHE
Title: Associate
Division: Investment Banking
Desk: Corporate and Acquisition Finance
Company: Nomura International

I didn’t follow the typical ‘Summer Internship’ path into investment banking.  I studied economics and finance at university and knew that I wanted to work on Wall Street so when I was offered a job offer at a boutique firm I was thrilled.

Should I go to Law School?
My time working at a law firm really hasn't convinced me that most of what lawyers do, especially at the more junior levels, really requires much intellectual creativity at all. So, the first part of my question is: how fair do you think this assessment is?This first question is really a subsidiary to the larger question I'm mulling over: should I go to law school?
