Ask the working adults to compare the two top positions of simultaneous interpreting and investment

Because I'm serious about you, so don't you ask questions first? Which one is your current foundation closer to?

Mind the question first, and then think about the rest later. Choosing a career is a big task for anyone to make a strategic decision. Because you are not zero years old, a blank sheet of paper, designed from scratch, job hunting is a process of knowing each other and knowing yourself, you can't sort and choose from the high-salary list, do you have both authentic foreign language skills and profound financial management knowledge?

If yes, congratulations! You can't go wrong in any way, because these two talents are very cross-border, and it is generally difficult to have both. It should be like this, that's why you're entangled.

If not, then unfortunately, you must first analyze yourself, where is the professional foundation, what is the competitive advantage? Which line of work is easier for you to make a realistic choice based on your personal situation is the internal analysis process of strategic management, and the questions you ask belong to the analysis of the external environment, both of which are indispensable before strategic decisions. After you've thought about that, okay, let's get your questions done.

1.In addition to the qualifications, the two can only be talked about after more than five years of experience. Otherwise it's all an apprenticeship process.

2.The difference in work content is that one is the bilingual free switching of large-scale meetings, the other is the evaluation and implementation of large-scale investment projects, one is focused on the language, whether it is appropriate and decent, and the other is focused on money, whether to obtain the maximum investment return and proper risk management.

3 .Salary, network accumulation, etc., the two are inseparable, and it doesn't matter if they are fish or bear's paws.

4 .Promotion and career change, proves that you think far ahead, very comprehensive, is to consider the cost of exit, this point investment banking is much better, the older the experience, the more valuable, the learning accumulation curve is particularly good, the road is getting wider and wider, in the investment bank and the project tired, you can go to a large company to do corporate finance, as a CEO or CFO, or investment manager. The switch between simultaneous interpretation is still to do translation, either verbally or in writing.

5.What are the shortcomings of each other, the so-called simultaneous interpreter who sees that he makes a lot of money is often a "job", not a "job".", if it is a fixed job, it is a salary, not as high as the legend. And investment banking is work, and it has to be stable, because a project cycle is often long.

It will be very troublesome to change halfway, and the company is not willing to do this.

Other questions are considered by yourself, I have nothing to say, I understand your caution and entanglement, are men afraid of entering the wrong line. Always right.

The master leads the door, the practice depends on the individual, investment banking and simultaneous interpretation are both high-input and high-output jobs, but the input may not necessarily have output, depending on your own resource accumulation.

1. Time and difficulty of effort.

Both are quite difficult, time-consuming, and require a lot of understanding.

One is the ability to study foreign languages in depth, and the other is the ability to apply comprehensive economics. Both require agile thinking, super adaptability, comprehensive knowledge, good learning ability and learning spirit. There are very high requirements for background and thinking level.

Personally, I don't think it's much comparative.

2. Differences in work content.

Name implies. Simultaneous interpretation is to do simultaneous translation for others, and the focus is more on the individual's comprehensive foreign language ability.

Investment banking depends on the nature of your work, if you are engaged in the main business, it is generally related to investment analysis, laws and regulations, and of course, excellent foreign language is also a necessary skill.

3. Harvest. From the perspective of grassroots employees, the difference in salary is not large. Investment banks talk about annual salary, and simultaneous interpretation depends on the level of the occasion you go to translate, and there is not much difference in the end.

Knowledge information. Investment banks have a relative advantage, and they are involved in investment information from all walks of life, at least you need to know the relevant content of all walks of life; Although simultaneous interpretation involves a wide range of topics, it depends on the project you are translating, and the frequency and depth are not as good as those of investment banks, so the knowledge is slightly inferior.

Accumulation of contacts. In terms of scope, it is comparable, of course, it also depends on the level of the individual. In terms of depth, investment banks still have the advantage, after all, from the perspective of economic planning and analysis, it is indeed more in-depth to communicate with people than simple information transmission, and the accumulation of contacts is also more qualitative.

4. Prospects. It's still the same sentence, investment banks have the advantage because of the depth.

5. Disadvantages. The disadvantage of investment banking is that it is risky and stressful, and if you like an easy job, you don't have to think about it.

The disadvantage of simultaneous interpretation is that there is room for growth, the money is taken a lot, and if you go up, it is nothing more than a high-level simultaneous interpretation. If there is a lot of pursuit of fame and fortune, then don't think about it.

6. Other comments.

Both professions are high-end jobs, and the investment is relatively large, if you are not from a prestigious school, you will not be able to make any gains.

It is easier to enter an investment bank than Tongsheng, and you can enter the bank with a corresponding financial foundation. Correspondingly, there is more room for development. However, the soft power requirements for practitioners are relatively high, such as psychological quality, physical conditions, personal relationships, etc.

Simultaneous sound belongs to the advanced stage of translation, and there is not much room for development. But the job is stable and the income is high. The requirements for soft power are lower than those for investment banks.

Neither of your positions is related. A high salary is something that everyone wants to get. Both positions require a high level of expertise.

And neither position says that you will get a high salary as soon as you come up, but you have to accumulate it slowly. Both of my suggestions are difficult for you to choose, so you might as well take a closer look. Then make a comparison.

On the other hand, salary is not critical for you when you are just starting out in your career. The key is whether the previous developments are in your favor.

If you are not a non-financial major in a famous school in the Beiqing Dynasty, and you do not have a relatively strong network at present, the possibility of a good investment bank is very small. You can go in and think about it. Of the people I know who work in investment banks in China and Hong Kong, there is only one person with top grades, one in a thousand, and no background.

The other people are excellent in all aspects, but everyone has a background, and you can simply be strong in a foreign country. Domestic investment banks and related households are queuing.

The income of investment banking is much higher than that of simultaneous translation, and someone needs to bring it in to enter the industry, and simultaneous interpreters rely on their own skills to eat.

If you have these two offers in your hand now, you will not regret choosing either one, but the premise is that you must be firm and persistent, otherwise you will feel that you have made the wrong choice.

Without further ado, integrate the resources around you, look at your interpersonal relationships, and comprehensively judge which job you are suitable for. Close to reality!

I used to work in the company, now do translation, let me briefly talk about the investment bank is the United States, China is called the company, if it doesn't matter, you have to start from the account manager, that is, to pull customers to the company to open an account or buy financial products, you have high requirements for your expression ability and affinity, you can be promoted to a senior account manager for more than 1 year, and then promoted to a regional manager, or a senior account manager, etc., as long as you can complete the amount of tasks per month (now about hundreds of thousands of yuan) , insist on a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan after 1 year, there is no problem, the premise is that **cooperate, ** is not good and no one comes to open an account, just get a basic salary of more than 1,000 yuan. Take money completely based on strength, to be honest, it's not easy to do, 90% of people have changed jobs. But the rest are definitely elite.

Simultaneous interpretation is paid by the hour, depending on what language you are, English is about 3000-10000 yuan an hour, and about 5000-15000 yuan for small languages, depending on what unit you are doing, ** the highest department senior meeting is given, and the interpretation of small companies is much lower, but an hour can earn others 1 month's money, or even more. The premise is that you must learn well and not make mistakes, which requires a solid language foundation.

Compared with the two, the former has a low entry threshold, as long as you have the ability to express + qualifications, you can get a job, and the latter needs to learn a language + education, to say which earns more, the latter earns more per unit of time.
