OP do you have an idea of specifically what type of I banking you want to do? Do you have an informed appreciation for what the career involves?

I am trying to gauge if it is just the image of I banking you are drawn to or if it is a thought through career interest. Most people don’t realize what the career is all about beyond media images. I know it’s hard to know as a 17 year old.

I was fortunate to be a college athlete and am a career I banker so I may be able to provide some perspective but don’t want to make presumptive suggestions. Any insight into the why’s and what’s of I banking may help me respond.

You are being responsible and thoughtful in this consideration before possibly shutting the door on an eventual career choice.

Congratulations regardless
