Finance
The Imperial College Finance Society (ICFS) is the premier society for students looking for city careers. With over 2000 members, we are the largest careers focused society on campus. Our aim is to provide our members the resources they need to land their dream job in the city.
ICFS is sponsored by many top tier city firms in the accounting, banking and consultancy (ABC) sectors. We hold regular interactive events with leading investment banks and city firms. These events are aimed at providing our members with information about job opportunities in the city, as well as offering a forum to network with leading professionals in the city and bright individuals on campus.
We also organise talks and presentations on various financial topics such as derivatives, the current round of financial consolidation, global markets etc. These are given by prominent speakers, who are experts in their respective fields.
In addition to this we are building relationships with other academic institutions worldwide, to share ideas and collectively pool knowledge and resources. In 2007-2008 ICFS initiated the UK’s very first student led Inter-University Trading Game which saw c.500 students from Imperial College, Oxford, Cambridge and LSE take part.
ICFS is known by all the major recruiters in the ABC sectors, and mentioning you have taken the effort to participate in these events could transfer your application from the 'maybe' to the 'yes' pile. The sooner you get involved in our activities the better, so all you first and second years out there, get involved and make sure you get clued up about the job you want.
