Awesome logo! Awesome name!
Good luck with this Monty, I believe it can be great.
Finally, I am home.
Whenever and wherever this is I will be there. I think this is a great idea and the potential value is immense. I know Monty very well offline and he is a legit dude. Whenever this thing gets going I will bring a couple industry people myself and by industry I am talking about FO/NYC people.
As far as I am concerned this is an epic win win for anyone coming to it. You get to meet industry people, you get to meet other students, you get a direct opportunity to both hear about relevant topics and ask questions, plus you have access to these people after the fact.
Is this a NYC event or SF or what?
Monty has been discussing this on other threads. It's just a Houston event for now, but he'll be looking to franchise if the first event is a success.
correct. Will be Houston for now and if an need presents itself is other cities we can have one.
Picked houston for the following:
Houston was ranked best place to start a career
Houston's energy industry is growing and grads should be interested in being a part of that growth..
My network is strongest in Houston so I can be of the most help for both you and me
I will likley still be living in Buenos Aires when takes place but if I am able to make the trip back up for a few days it would be great to meet some WSO members face to face.
Sounds like a great idea.
Yah this would be of no help for me since FT recruiting is in the fall but I still kind of want to go just for fun lol
you never know... few people on here will agree with the power of networking.. i can make at least 10 people who i directly put them in touch with someone who could bypass the online resume drop
if im currently an undergrad in LA graduating dec 2011 but am acutally looking to live in Houston after graduation. would this be helpful? no texas firms seem to be on my OCR or job search database.
up to you....
sounds awesome. count me in.
Me too.
Would this be relevant for IBD or is it focused on those wanting to go into trading?
i have investment banking, equity research, sales and trading and investment management covered
^ I don't see how that really matters. You'll get a great insight not only into Energy Trading. Any exposure you get will help.
It seems to be targeted towards people in a later part of their studies. Does it make sense for a freshmen ? I mean it doesn't hurt, but I don't wannt to take some more experienced person's place away as a rookie and I would have to come from europe....
its targeted to anyone that is serious about a career post college not just a job.
and rookies need love too
3 BB's are on board and 2 HF's

SUBJECT TO CHANGES
$175 by 10/1 $200 by 2/1 $250 after 2/1 $10,000 at the door
we will need all resumes by 2/1 so we can start to review and after the event we will be sending resume book to all firms that attend. Goal is to get the ball rolling on getting in front of the right people.
site will be up in the afternoon
I will be forwarding the website to my school's business department as soon as it is up. I would really like to be there and I can think of a few others from my school who want to attend as well (from NY).
I'll be there and will forward the info on to some people from my class. Possibly only the less competitive people so that I have a better chance...
Sounds like a fantastic event. I, like many others on here, can personally attest to Monty's knowledge on the subject and more importantly, his desire to really help people out as they try to enter the industry. Clearly a lot of thought has already been put into organizing this and there’s no doubt in my mind that those who attend will find it to have been well worth their while. Can't learn this type of stuff in a classroom.
A year and a half ago, I helped convince our school's investment club to buy a fertilizer company in Saskatchewan called Potash Corp. for $70 a share. The club voted yes and bought $5,000 worth of stock. We will be selling our POT shares and I hope to use the profits toward attending this conference.
Any updates on the site launch?
updated with info that is on here...
will be updated and things get more firm.. anyone with any questions can reach me at [email protected]
