Is pitching and winning a deal in IB hard, absolutely! You just have to pitch yourself as the best deal the recruiter has ever seen

Take this as you will. Almost every IB posting is pretty damn competitive unless you’re applying to a one-off boutique firm. Even still, those positions can be flooded with resumes. One question to ask yourself: with all those resumes with experienced hire analysts, how am I competitive in comparison?

To answer your question, it’s a difficult leap, but absolutely doable. You just have to prove your competitive advantage against those candidates

No transferable skill sets. I think it is tough but anything is doable
