Question: What does a normal work-day look like for a financial modeling professional?
Answer: It depends. Financial modeling professionals fit multiple categories.
For example, you could hold an MBA in marketing and have done basic courses in finance and accounting and be comfortable with developing spreadsheets – and could also double as a financial modeler for business cases and projections based on marketing plans. So perhaps only a few hours per week could go into financial modeling.
On the other hand, you could work as an analyst at an investment bank where a big part of your job would be scouring corporate financials, manually entering data into spreadsheets, error checking your manual data entries, developing projected financial statements and then doing multiple valuations from morning till night, and often through the night.
