JACQUELINE NOVOGRATZ: I’d never wanted to be a banker, but my parents essentially begged me to interview. I ended up at an interview with Chase Manhattan Bank. The guy said, “Tell me why you want to be a banker.” And I said, “Actually, I don’t. But my parents are making me go through this.” Truth. And he said, “Well, too bad, because if you got this job, you’d be in 40 countries over the next two years.” I said, “Can we start over?” I left the room, came back and said, “Hi. I’m Jacqueline Novogratz.” And he said, “Tell me why you want to be a banker.” And I was like, “Ever since I was six, that was my dream.” For whatever reason, I got the job.
