Hi everyone,
My phone interview with a BB today is with their COO. Can anyone tell me, is this an especially good sign for me? Or is this normal for interviews?
All my other 1st round interviews were with associates...
ended up not being a crazy big deal... pretty much a nice conversation with a really interesting person.
oh and alexpasch: that's the reason i asked. it seemed off to me too, and i didn't know if i should be excited, freaking out, or what
thanks for the (polite) responses and help, everyone!
Probably the COO of the Securities division, or they separate it by region too.
I wouldn't make too much of it, I'm in contact with a COO at a BB constantly, he even emails me to keep in touch lol. Management is management - they're not trading anymore and COOs do a lot for recruiting.
The upside to that is you don't have to feel pressure! Chillax and just do whatcha gotta do.
I don't accept sacrifices and I don't make them. ... If ever the pleasure of one has to be bought by the pain of the other, there better be no trade at all. A trade by which one gains and the other loses is a fraud.

Nam rerum amet similique dicta qui. Dignissimos facere blanditiis saepe veritatis iure praesentium. Pariatur molestias maxime necessitatibus est adipisci magni et soluta. Quam hic et fuga assumenda animi sunt voluptas.
Placeat voluptates in blanditiis reprehenderit quo quod. Quaerat ab nihil consequatur qui. Voluptas fugit quam ea illo alias facilis. In autem voluptatem quis nostrum quo quidem voluptas.
Eum tempora autem ullam iste. Sunt voluptas ut et aut explicabo. Et unde quam ratione quo error. Aut accusantium voluptatem rem ipsum.

Did you get it through a contact? If so i say it will be yours to lose.
no no contacts... just an online resume drop. and what exactly do you mean by "yours to lose?"
meaning youre as close to a shoe in as you can get.. the only way you wont get is if you dont prepare and blow it
....which is very plausable if you do not know the expression "yours to lose"
The COO of a BB is phone interviewing you for an entry level position????? That can't be right...

Are you sure he is the COO of the entire bank? That doesn't seem to make any sense at all.
thats what it said in the email hr sent me
