Is it worth doing an MBA at 31 to work in the US at a buyside firm (long only/hf)
Hi I am currently working on SS as an equity research associate in Canada. I am not a Canadian citizen yet and will be getting it at the age of 31 한국나이 33 in 2023 I am planning to do my MBA at that time since I want to secure my citizenship first.
The goal is to work at a long only shops like wellington, fidelity, T rowe, or funds like citadel global equities etc.
Given limited options in Canada other than pension funds, I want to ideally get some experience in the US but was wondering if it makes sense to make this move. I am worried about my age being 33 at graduation to join as an analyst at a buyside firm, and if this move can have more upside (comp, career progression, possibility of starting something on my own etc) than working in Canada. If there’s anyone that has gone thru similar paths would appreciate any advice!
