Find me a job and I'll give you my first weeks pay
Once hired by the firm, after I receive my first paycheck, I am willing to pay my first weeks salary to the individual whose efforts resulted in me being hired by the firm.
I am looking for an entry level (0-3yrs) position in asset management or private equity. Some responsibilities I would like to have are building financial models (including valuations or trading models) or econometric models, interpreting models to help make investment decisions, analyzing prospective investments, researching the company, bond covenants, etc, and being able to recommend investments or strategies. I am absolutely willing to learn, meet strict deadlines, and work long hours. I would like to work in NYC or Boston, but I am open to other locations.

Gross or after tax?
You won't land any thing in private equity unless you are a best-of-the-best from a top 5 UG, already have investment banking experience, or get a spot at a crappy boutique PE shop. Focus on asset management. Your resume is definitely more impressive than mine coming out of undergrad.
pretty impressive resume
pretty impressive resume ...yet at first glance would doubt your abilities/skills in the technologies that you listed. i presume that you have had experience with all of them, but to say that they are a skill of yours? Esp with the fact that you list no relevant coursework / internships / outside projects in those technologies. A lot of strong technical guys would have a tough time listing all of those languages as a "skill"... An interview with a senior technical person who will quickly change your opinion of what it means to list those languages as a "skill", as there are many intricacies to those languages...just my 2 cents from experience.
But since you are going for AM/PE there is a really good chance no one will call you out on those skills so it def. adds to the impressiveness.
I could be completely wrong and you could be some baller dude and so if thats the case my bad...that's one pretty sweet resume. I think I can forward your resume to a couple places.
Arn0601, Your right, C and
Arn0601,
Your right, C and C++ are difficult languages. I would argue that most programmers or software engineers feel as though they haven't fully grasped both of those languages, as you mention.
At the same time, I am comfortably proficient in each of the languages listed. Most of the languages were gathered through various classes. In high school, I started learning C and C++ in a class. During that same time, I started using Linux, Red Hat, and while in college, Debian and Ubuntu. To make things easier, I started learning Unix commands, which inevitably lead to me making custom scripts to make multiple tasks easier.
As for Java, as a mathematics major I had to take a Java programming class. Having a background in programming, I started as young lad with Basic and QBasic, I decided to really spend the time and learn it. Read a few books, did all the projects required of the class. Afterward, I started working a option trading platform that would recommend option strategies based on the risk profile of the user. The idea was to utilize real data so the user could invest right at that moment. The data was free and only end of day,so it never got utilized. At the moment, the source we had no longer exists.
As for Mathematica, Matlab, and VBA, it is a similar story. I was forced to use it a class and then I would read more about it and do a bit of a side project to help me learn more about it.
As you noted, I have never really done any programming projects for a position I have held, besides basic VBA to make my life easier. Programming to me has always been interesting and fun, so I learned it. The same reasons I learned about investing on my own at a young age and augmented it with a formal education.

What if 2 or 3 people help
What if 2 or 3 people help you at a firm. Will you divide 1 week's pay? That's not much incentive.
I mean assuming you're looking for an analyst job... best case you're getting 75k... weekly pay is jack shit. My firm is hiring but I'd get more utility out of using my time to make fun of you then go jack off than helping you for a grand after taxes.

Yah My BB pays 5K for recommending someone for a position (they need to accept too). So someone could help you get a job there, get your first weeks pay, and maybe even be able to get the 5K from the bank too.
