One of the distinctive features of the SimTrade blog is the systematic and continuous sharing of professional experiences by SimTraders. These contributions go beyond simple testimonials: they provide structured, first-hand insights into internships, entry-level positions, and early career paths in finance, banking, asset management, consulting, and related fields. By documenting their experiences, SimTraders transform individual learning trajectories into transferable knowledge.
Importantly, these posts also serve a practical career-development function. They are frequently used by students to prepare internship applications, refine interview strategies, identify target institutions or roles, and, last but not least, gain access to informal networks and insider contacts that facilitate their job search.
