Landing a job at a firm will likely require a degree of sorts. From my experience in IB, most of the people I work with have a finance, economics, or accounting degrees. That doesn't mean you CAN'T land a job without one of those, however. I have met people in my field who have a religious studies degree from Yale, for example. Having the ivy league background helps, but they are high functioning people with incredibly high intelligence. I would say if your degree is not in the three mentioned above, I would recommend Wall Street Prep and putting that on your resume. That shows to wherever you are applying that you are taking initiative and very interested in it. You won't get into a Bulge Bracket to start, but there are plenty of boutiques that like to see someone with ambition. That said, you can always go the route of being a trader if you are savvy enough and do enough research. Avoid technical analysis, as it's voodoo. But trade on news (like the 737 Max 8 news). Hope I could help!
