Welcome :) Some general tips for a happy experience on WSO:

  • Search before asking a basic / common question. Use both the WSO search and Google
  • Recruiting questions always go in the 'Get A Job' forum
  • If you see a member called Brady4MVP, troll him hard
  • Avoid political / religious discussions
  • Make good use of the content! There is a ton of amazingly useful stuff here, everything from the Compensation Database / Company Database / Finance Dictionary will give you great information
  • The vast majority of users here will always be willing to help you however they can if you are asking genuine questions, there have been some truly fantastic posts and threads

Best of luck!
