whats the hours like and is it high intense etc ?

She expects to work ten - twelve hour days but is ok with this because it is something she wants to do . She is only 21 and thinks that she may as well work hard while she is young
When she gets married and has kids she said that she will find a job with more flexible hours
The starting salary for her job is around 70k

Not every finance job has brutal hours. I used to be a real estate fund analyst, was about the only one left in the office after 6pm.

One of one did economics, maths and further maths at school then went on to a degree in data science and works for a high street bank at their HQ. Normal mon-Fri hours and has potential to earn well rising through the ranks.
