Feeling lost as an analyst
I’ve always been an extremely motivated and disciplined person with things like school, my finances, etc, but it’s like I’m having a disconnect with work. I want to work hard and move up so bad. I was able to get on one of the biggest projects at my firm and have worked on more projects than a lot of the other analysts just by networking and asking to help. When it comes to the actual work I fail, I can’t even get editing a deck right. I feel like an idiot all the time, I will think I did amazing on something but when I send it to someone to review it always comes back with 100 corrections.
Is this normal? I get great overall feedback from partners and okay feedback from people who are closer to my work. It’s just draining because I want to move up, I want to be a top performer, I think the job I get to do is so amazing for a new grad but it’s just not clicking. I’m 10 months in and I feel like I’ve had some growth, but nothing significant.
