    Hot industries?

    Hi all,

    What are the hot areas of industries at the moment?

    I was talking to a friend and he said that the area of Investment Banking is a hot one and that generally it is good to work in a bank for your CV (and it gives more money), he prefers it from an IT company.

    What do you all think?

    thank you.

    Fireman, Tube Driver (although with this summer things are cooling off) and flipping burgers are all pretty hot areas.

            Investment banking's a bit old hat. Their best talent went to the hedge funds 5-10 years ago, and even hedge funds are old hat now.

              Your friend is correct, although IB is a bit like a closed shop
