My CHINESE interviewer SCREWED ME OVER

Did you apply for a position in Hong Kong capital markets?

yeah

I had a bad experience with Beijing in the past, so I told the guy I didnt want to be in Beijing the guy didnt understand a word I said. This little man should just be fired. I got a fucking offer the last tiem I applied, and now I cant even make it past a fucking first round interview?

Guys Im so pissed right now, please help me out. what can I do? he is from IBD in BJ

lmao what language do you think they speak in China?

that's so werid how HR assigned you someone from beijing IDB for an interview in HK IBD. I can only suspect GS... hehe

You sound like a little bitch. So you got a tough interview... tough shit. You're not entitled to anything - this man should be fired because of your incompetence? wow, some people on this board really amaze me. You want to work for them, which means you play by their rules - not the other way around. I'm also willing to bet that you overemphasized your language skills on your resume/application.

Please... do complain to HR so that you can be blackballed from the firm and we'll no longer have to listen to your incessant whining.

Reiterating what b said. I bet you played the "I can speak Mandarin/Cantonese" card big time. But if you didn't, think really hard about why this happened. I highly doubt Goldman did this on accident.

Went through your previous posts and it's hilarious how pathetic you really are. First you say you have a full-time offer with GS in Beijing (complaining about having to work in the mainland), then you post about seniors applying for summer internships (clearly refuting the claim that you actually did get an offer), and now you are whining about how you got called out on your language skills.

Way to go, douche. No wonder you didn't get a full-time offer and probably won't get a legit summer either.

lol what a tool.

lol his e-reputation got thrashed.

b don't lie. tell me where I said I had an offer from MS HK. I clicked on your links, nowhere did I say that

and I TOLD people I didn't want to talk to about what happened to my GS offer but you should have a pretty good idea when you see my post "I regret lying" put 2 and 2 together

chill out

Thanks dinendal. The other

Thanks dinendal. The other offer I have is with MS Global Capital Markets in HK, but I want to be in an industry group...

I'm still very, very confused why HK rejected me too

There you go douche...

Click the link I posted and ctrl-F the phrase "The other offer I have is with MS Global Capital Markets in HK, but I want to be in an industry group..." ;)

You posted your "regret" on Nov. 5, one week earlier than when you posted about your two offers, which is why I did not put 2 and 2 together. ;)

But hey... I think everyone on these boards has a pretty good idea of your personality by now. There's nothing further for me to justify. ;)

This thread delivers.

What did we ever do without the track feature?

Dude you are like Alexi Vayner 2...such a fucking compulsive liar...though you may have bullshitted your way into school people in business are generally smarter, especially banking. Your lies will always catch up, especially since your so fucking stupid. Lesson to other undergraduates: don't bullshit employers, it generally won't work and it will catch up to you.

Thanks for stalking me

Again, I want to go into IBD so no I don't have IBD offers. I didn't get an IBD offer, hte only I had got taken away. I don't see what the problem is.

What are you reasons for wanting to become an investment banker? You seem like you just want to cut corners and take the easy way out. Is this the cool thing that everyone at your school is doing? You seem to have all the wrong motivation.

You're applying for IBD? Wow, that's weird, because the third sentance in your original post states "I am not applying to IBD, I applied to Capital Markets".

...weird huh? ;)

put 2 and 2 together stupid

if GS IBD took away the offer they would not give it to me again

i can't apply to GS IBD

dpoesnt mean i didnt for another firms

I find it most comical that you're still trying to defend yourself. If I were in your shoes, I would just create a new screen name and hide behind it until I got caught in another web of pathological lies. ;)

I did have a bit of a rough day... please, keep me entertained by continuing to reply to this post. ;)

put 2 and 2 together

put 2 and 2 together stupid

Why don't you PM me your resume? I think your a dream candidate, I would love to show it to the MDs in my group. I prefer video resumes so please send me your youtube video. Thanks.

guys its cool you feel this way, im not the type to hide

here's who i am, this is what i did, what im doing

take it or leave it

and stop smiling at me its disturbing ;) ;) ;)

ANY thing you say or do will be used against you on WSO.... SO STOP BS'ing

I'm not smiling, I'm winking. ;).

I must find you cute. ;)

even worse, I dont feel that way about you

LOLOL....this dude got served/owned/trashed/stomped/(anything else anybody wants to add?)

Keep posting bro, you're on a roll. And I LOLed when i saw all the ;) ;) ;) ;)

If he can't even lie on a forum, think about how horrible he is at lying in person! haha. 

Threads like these completely destroy the credibility of this forum.  Come on guys, there is nothing wrong with being on the job hunt -- we all were at some point.  And while it sucks that the company went ahead and interviewed you in the native language -- let's be honest, what business do you have applying to jobs in countries where you don't speak the language!!

Whatever your excuse is JJLM, not saying I do or don't believe you, but CompBanker is right hello you applied to Asia

CompBanker, the new star user system does provide a degree of credibility that won't be tarnished by threads like this.

To JJLM, you fucked up.  Please do let us know what you decide for the new user name.

I didn't fuck up

I didnt have any IBD offers except 1 that was taken away. So I applied to ALL IBD this time around, but only capital markets with GS because I have a lot of contacts there. then I got put with a banker from Beijing and here I am

so no guys, I didnt do anything wrong and I am keeping this screen name

and b you're a senior too we're in the same boat you think youre a little insecure? yea

I never claimed otherwise. ;)

Unlike you, however, I'm a sub-mat senior. ;)

Also, why would I be insecure? I have multiple prospects on the horizon. ;)

"I have multiple prospects on the horizon."

prospects

nice.

;);)

Imo, you screwed up, and now you are screwed. Don't take it too hard though, from the sound of it you wouldn't do very well in an interview at any rate...

The worst part about this and why I have no sympathy for you is that have no remorse whatsover. You have the sense of entitlement that you somehow deserve these positions. "I didn't fuck up" and " I didnt do anything wrong and I am keeping this screen name." Guess what? You lied and you were caught so yes you did fuck up and yes you did do something wrong. Stop blaming your shortcomings on other people. Stop thinking that you are smarter than everyone else, because obviously you are not. In response to Compbanker's comments, I have no problem beating up on this kid about his decisions. I sincerely hope he never gets a job in the industry I work in. I don't want to ever have him on my deal team or working for any other bank because I don't want to be caught in the collateral damage when this kid fucks up again and again. Sounds like the interviewers have already weeded him out so probably a moot point.

Again, I ask JJLM why do you want to become an investment banker?

Saying this again, show me where I lied, never did on this board you guys are reading too much into things and being too insecure

JJLM - a little bit of advice for you:  Let it die.  Continuing to defend yourself is going to create more attention and I can assure you there is no way you're going to convince people your story is squeaky clean (true or not).  I hope, for your sake, this is the last post on this thread.

b don't lie. tell me

There you go douche...

You amaze me, but you are good for a laugh. I actually would want to interview you because I can't believe you are resally this stupid in real life. Honest advice. Get a new name and try a MM or Ops (without the sense of entitlement) or find another industry.

you can't read

My offer from MS was not with an industry group. Again, I am applying for IBD jobs. The only place I'm not is GS because of a bad run with the IBD dept. Never did I say I had an offer from MS IBD. READ: G C M

JJLM, listen to CompBanker

the GS name is not that important, especially outside of the US. you should have just taken the GCM offer.

The only problem is that he didn't have a GCM offer...

This is getting old.  Anyone else think it's time to lock this thread?

Moral of the story: if you say you're fluent in Mandarin, you are liable to be interviewed by a native Mandarin speaker.  I've seen worse -- a BB VP made an Ivy SA candidate translate the (English) cover letter into handwritten Mandarin and fax it over WHILE they were still on the phone for a Surprise interview.

justanotherbanker, that's hilarious (yet cruel). Good thing I don't have anything about fluency in my resume.

And I don't think this thread's getting old. This will probably be moved to the Hall of Fame thread. ;)

"a BB VP made an Ivy SA candidate translate the (English) cover letter into handwritten Mandarin and fax it over WHILE they were still on the phone for a Surprise interview"

That's really fucked up. i mean, i can do it, but i'll freak out nevertheless.
