how come there are so many hot girls (usually blondes) at superdays but you rarely see any working in the banks?





don't worry
they'll be around. they'll usually be sitting in a conference room at your office and be working with a big 4 audit firm.
i'm a (straight) girl, so
i'm a (straight) girl, so seeing them isn't really my concern. i'm just confused as to the low ratio of hired:interviewed for attractive girls as opposed to attractive guys, which i see a lot of.
are bankers just afraid of sexual harassment suits or are there more gay bankers in the recruitment process than i thought?

most hot girls are also rich girls from well off families. they don't need the money and don't want to put in the hours. they take a normal 40-60 hr/week job. they're trying to get married, not become MDs.
totally agree. i have no
totally agree. i have no clue why any girl, especially hot ones choose banking. banking for guys is a means to an ends, with the ends being money and girls. girls don't need the money nor the job to get the guys. if i was a hot chick there would be a 0 percent chance i would do banking, i'd get a 9-5, maintain my body, and eventually get married.

spot on.
Agree, although I have seen
Agree, although I have seen some hot girls in banking (but certainly not many). I diagree that hot girls are usually the rich ones..often the rich girls are the product of a rich, ugly daddy and a hot mom...an ugly + a hot doesn't necessarily produce a hot child.
There were 2 really hot girls in my SA class. One was rich and ambitious, the other was middle-class.
I wish there were more hot girls in banking through. It sucks that most are so painful to look at.
As for hot girls at superdays but not in the banks, I really have no idea. It seemed to me that hot girls who wanted to do banking at my school had no problem getting offers everywhere. I know a girl with an average GPA, average work experience, average everything but she's a hot blonde and she got offers petty much everywhere. She's cool and all, but I think her looks are what did it for her.
You guys are a bunch of
You guys are a bunch of chauvinist pigs. Not every woman just wants to be a wife. Women are more than just sexual objects. Although I am sure you guys are at least half-kidding (or I hope so), I suggest you read "The Feminine Mystique" by Betty Friedan. It's old, but you might still learn something from it.
And yes, I am a straight man. Straight, but not narrow.
Re: Agree, although I have seen
...an ugly + a hot doesn't necessarily produce a hot child.
To be fair, hot + hot doesn't always produce a hot kid. At the same time, hotties can come from so-so looking parents.
Is it possible having a bunch of hot girls is a bank's way of doing a bait-and-switch? "Look at all these hot girls you will be working with...Hell, maybe you could hook-up with one!"

Bankerbot must be gay to have that type of response. And he probably read that book voluntarily.
I will respect the feminist
I will respect the feminist movement when the women who believe in it stop wanting it both ways. They want to be "independent" and treated equally with men but they still want men to open up doors and give up rides in taxis, etc. If chivalry is dead, feminists killed it.
Why would any woman want to
Why would any woman want to endure the work of an analyst? What comes out of it for them....There are far better jobs that lead to entrepreneurial, managerial positions, than being in a 2 yr analyst program (if the woman has the will and determination to be more than a barbie). But if not, then getting a 9-5 at a BB is respectable enough, and you could be assured to have a successful husband who can take care of you, and you could have a good life (and a good name to yourself). There's no reason ANYONE willingly wants to work 100+ hrs a week, but majority are men because, as others mentioned, work hard to make the money, then the women. As for the women....work a 9-5, have a hot body, some class, and your good to go.

It's despicable when feminists say to me women can't work long hours
It's ridiculous
because some girls, while maybe want to find a husband who is well-to-do and whatnot, would like to have financial security of their own. So, in case you have to divorce his sorry ass, you won't have to depend on a ridiculous divorce settlement. That being said, I would take him to the cleaners just for shits and giggles.
At my school, there are certain banks which consistently get the 'pretty girls' (well good looking people in general). A lot of the girls come from pretty well off families but either 1) get peer pressured into the corporate track b/c all their friends are doing things, or 2) want to find a means to an end. Everyone knows banking provides great exit opps. esp. if you want to go to business school.
has anyone had to deal with
has anyone had to deal with girl analyst/associates crying on the job? how uncomfortable of a situation is it?
if you think about it, most
if you think about it, most good looking girls I know are into finding attractive and wealthy men that they can marry and live a great life with.
In banking you have a huge number of these men. It makes sense for girls perhaps looking for such a man to join the industry. It probably won't be for a while but 2-years of paying their dues could mean another 20 years of living a great lifestyle with their future husband.
point taken, but i wouldn't
I've seen crying and
