7MA Talks Internships and Breaking Into the World of Investment Banking

7MA’s Sydney Scadden, Nic Anderle, and Tyler Ratterree all have one significant thing in common - they sought internships to propel their careers. While in college, Nic had two internships  - one at RSM, which gave him great hands-on accounting experience, and another at Copper Run, which ultimately swayed him to pursue an investment banking career path. With a plethora of internship experiences under his belt -  in everything from commercial banks and their loan servicing departments to working in his college’s admissions department - it took Tyler more time to discover his interest in investment banking. In fact, it wasn’t until his internship at PwC during graduate school that he found his calling in deal processes. For many, like Sydney, the ultimate goal of an internship is to have the role transition into or lead to a full-time job, which is exactly what she achieved. Sydney was a summer intern analyst at 7MA before being hired as an employee. She went from setting up phone calls and meetings as an intern to leading the deals she had once watched unfold.On this episode of Deal Talk with 7MA, host Steve Sypek talks with three of 7MA’s finest about their personal internship experiences, the benefits of internships in general, and how 7MA’s own internship program can help young professionals hoping to break into the world of investment banking. 💡 Featured on the Episode 💡Name: Sydney ScaddenWhat she does: Once an intern at 7 Mile Advisors, Sydney is now a Vice President.
