1) waiting tables and sommelier in a casino, then bartender/mixologist in the bar area of the same casino, then croupier (mostly black jack, roulette) in the casino network 2) eBay powerseller bronze, then silver (cellphones, car parts)
able to transfer those sommelier skills over for use with clients and women?
Knowing how to mix drinks is useful for parties, knowledge of wines was useful for dates. But most clients are older than me and know a lot more about wines or even own their own wineries... so couldn't impress them. Wines, blends and wine regions also change all the time and the newer creations are unknown to me.
Slinging weed. Hardest part was how to tell my mom that I don't need money to pay for my food/rent/other expenses. At first she got worried that I might have ran out of money then she started to get suspicious later on...
That would've been sick though if you just saved all the money she gave you and then gave it back to her once you graduated
I'm assuming "Smokay72" isn't just a clever name?
smokay cuz i like the way smoke moves
Selling fake Nokia's on ebay.
Ice cream truck.
Bounced some weekends. Worked some random political campaigns. Retail hell
Although this thread isn't very relevant to me personally as I was very lucky that my dad was an Director in Ops.
He repeatedly told that he would only pay more college education if it was top 25 school in the world. If I failed, I would have to finance my education.
Looking back I doubt he would leave me out in the cold, but at the time, it lit a fire under my ass to try hard in high school and do well.
bar back. pretty easy, fast paced, all cash. made couple hundred on a good night if i recall.

Worked at Trader Joe's all 4 years.
Trader Joes is OVERPRICED and EXPENSIVE. I prefer to get my VEGAN, ORGANIC, GLUTEN FREE, FREE RANGE, GRASSFED food from WHOLE FOODS.
Joined the Marines and then realized that I fucked myself because I was then obviously working full time and doing school not full time. Fuck it; graduated in 5 years anyway, and I did not really starve.
Worked in one of the university's computer labs aka got paid to do homework
GI Bill.
College book store. First and last time working retail.
I played online poker and was eventually making decent money off midstakes heads up games. Wish I had dedicated more time to it though back when the games were still relatively good!
I was the computer help desk guy for my school's medical campus. Plenty of people acting shady when you go to fix an issue, and they never realize that it's a dead giveaway they probably have something on their computer. I never found (or even looked) for anything, though.
Coached and gave baseball lessons on the side
photographer at high school dances some weekends, paid $27/hr, not bad
Currently utilizing Army ROTC. Gives a 3-4 full tuition scholarship, $600 book allowance/semester, and $350/m stipend that increases $100/yr. plus amazing leadership experience that "I've heard" employers love.
A lot of jobs but tutoring paid the best. By far.
Last year, I was pretty fortunate and our tutoring service or whatever ran out of 'financial aid' to provide, so I thought they just weren't going to pay me so I was going to turn it down. Turns out they desperately needed someone to tutor econometrics and intermediate micro, so they paid me via direct deposit, easiest money I've ever made.
Had one shitty job in the mall. Told myself I am never doing it again so I found more interesting stuff through the rest of college as a brand rep or ambassador. If I really needed cash I would try to see if someone posted on Craigslist and needed help with moving or handiwork.
Tutored rich lacrosse econ majors in Calculus for $80/hour
I repaired Patek Phillipe watches in my spare time.
Are you serious? Because that is actually really cool.
Managed a gym
Currently in college, work part-time at a high-school in their IT support team. $20 per hour, could be worse..
random focus groups through some company. paid about $100 for 2 hours about once every week or two
I love doing these, just struggle to get them on a consistent basis.
Currently in college, just got a job as an Assistant Real Estate Agent. It's mostly just answering the phone, putting together presentations, and CTRL + C and CTRL + V. Pays $125 per week. And then I make about $350-900 per week from Ebay. All my money goes into crypto currencies.
Do you just sell stuff on Ebay or what?
traded friend's money. sometimes for huge losses. sometimes for large gains.

Jobs for folks in Undergrad? (Originally Posted: 12/24/2017)
Hello,
I was just wondering if anybody knew how common it was for Undergrads interested in Finance to get a job at a BB (or other bank) as a receptionist, janitor, or something else part time? Not sure if this can benefit at all but seems like on top of being a good addition to a resume it might be possibly be a good networking/learning opportunity just being around bankers. What are your thoughts?
No... first of all you wouldn't be able to get any of these jobs because they exclusively hire full time. Second, even if you could get these jobs, it'd be a huuuuuge waste of time. "Being around bankers" doesn't count for shit - recruiting in this industry is dominated by prestige (-> OCR), networks/networking (referrals), and experience (usually combined w OCR/referrals). No banker is going to get excited interviewing / having the prospect of working with the person who cleans the shit off the bottom of his toilet... hell, s/he doesn't even want to work with/interview the person in the back office doing all their accounting/compliance/HR/IT needs.
Gotcha, Thanks for the response
He's willing to do whatever it takes. Not everyone is a pompous ass like you seem to believe
That would be a bad strategy, full stop.
Find internships where you actually develop transferable skills.
Okay. Is there anything you can do while school is in session that would maybe help you get work experience or is it best to just focus on school, reading, being involved with on-campus clubs, etc.?
Look around for professors doing research in finance, Econ, etc. Most universities have professors producing academic or professional research outside of the classroom. This helped me get a job (I did some research with a finance professor as a Sophomore), and helped one of my friends get a great job in computer science because she did research with a CS professor.
You can often get either $$ or credit hours for participating, and it's interesting experience on a resume.
I will have to check that out. Thanks for the response!
Working During College (Originally Posted: 12/04/2007)
Not sure is this is the best place to post this, but for those that have interned part time (about 10hrs or less per week) in college, how has that influenced your academics/life balance. I'm just considering some winterships and don't want to bring down my GPA.
10 - 20 hours/week shouldn't really affect your grades
Its all about opportunity costs. Is the job actually worth 10 hours of your time? Do you need the cash (or is it unpaid)? I worked 10 hours a week and was able to maintain a decent GPA and it really wasn't a problem (nor was it much help resume wise or financially).
Honestly my 10 hour a week job made little difference in my life at that time, and just became like another class for me, just something that was a part of my day. I normally didn't start homework before 8-9pm before I had the job anyway.
10 hours or less is pretty easy and should not hurt your grades. Obviously you will have a little less time to hang out, but if you stay on top of your work it should not be a problem. More than 20 hours a week is no fun.
I work 20 hours a week at GE as a finance intern. It's not modeling/IB related by any means, but I get a lot of responsibility, and really did get a understanding of operations in a core business.
I was hesitant at first, since my classes aren't the easiest, but I cut back on having fun during the week (pretty rare at my school anyway) and just have a good time on weekends.
This has been worth it so far, as my experiences there for the last 6 months has been a selling point for me when talking to alumni and people are banks (BBs and boutiques). I actually found I did better GPA wise too with the 20 hours (got 4.0 this semester), but this was probably bc i work better under pressure.
After having done a bunch of random jobs during college and looking back on it now, nothing but real internships actually helped me get a job.
Even if this internship is unpaid, it's worth it if you can do something related to banking/finance as it will help you a lot when it comes to applying to SA/FT jobs down the road.
Taking a job for money in college is really not worth it because you just can't make that much from a formal job at that stage; you should try to learn as much as you can/get good experience even if it means taking an unpaid internship.
Internships got me my current job. GPAs doesn't matter without any experience, unless you know a SMD somewhere.
Since freshman year I have interned 20 hours a week and took between 12-18 credits a semester. I am a senior now and coming from a non-target my internships and high GPA has enabled me to secure a FT S&T offer for 2008 at a BB. I found that as long as I scheduled my classes and internship on different days I was fine. Also, I made sure that my manager understood that school came first and that I would need to take a few days off for finals. If you go to a non-target a strongly suggest you do the internship.
Good luck

This was tough as I was a college football player as well so in the fall I wal spending 40-50 hours a week on football, and then 10 on a job. Don't think it affected my grades since I prob would have wasted the 10 hours. There were some ugly weeks around midterms, but I still have a great social life and one of my strongest selling points was that I knew how to allocate my time and could havdle I-banking hours.
How did you get a hedge fund SA job Navy Suit?

I worked madly throughout college since my parents didn't give me any spending money. It was great though, since I made a lot of money and managed to make my first few job mistakes at a less important job and learn the game of office politics before moving into i-banking. (which is important since there are many smart people, but there is a game to play) It's actually through my jobs that I found the job that I am working at now, since I was working for another company on the same floor as my bank, god to know the guys and then after I graduated and said goodbye to my old company, I joined theirs.

For a non-target, it is essential.
Why is it essential? I know many people in banking who didn't work during the school year but still got into banking.
mwgr5, can you read?
mrbellaiche, I'm not sure what your comment is about. I realize that people have posted that working during the school year has helped them but no one has said it is essential. I know solid summer internships are essential but I had never heard that working during the school year is essential.
mrbellaiche, I'm not sure what your comment is about. I realize that people have posted that working during the school year has helped them but no one has said it is essential. I know solid summer internships are essential but I had never heard that working during the school year is essential.
it is referring to the fact that it's a non-target school. Plenty of kids from targets never worked during the school year and got jobs, yes.
Yes, for non-targets. I mean it depends what type of non-target obviously (meaning if it is Johns Hopkins or top 5 LA it may not apply), but your experience is the only way for you to really differentiate yourself from the targets. I attended a semi-target (as of recently), but I had to network my way to any positions that I was interested in. The only way I got people to push my resume (despite the 3.9+ GPA and extra currics) was the fact that I had boutique research from various places PRIOR to my junior summer. Plus, if you go to a state school, working throughout the year makes your situation look more finance-oriented and not so much intellect-oriented. Adds a great point for your story ("self-financed college 100%"). Good luck.
Only if you are a little girl with cancer will you have trouble with 10 hours a week
What about research for a finance professor during the school year?
sharpin your skills maybe or else you are just an unpaid employee
Pile on as much as you can, what else would you be doing anyways? It's not like college is that demanding, unless you are a dual bio-chem/ comp sci major... Internships are great, but they are not the only thing. Part time jobs are fine as well, especially in sales... Just learn to budget your time effectively and you will be doing just fine. I took 19-18 credits for 3 consecutive quarters (thats about 5 classes a quarter), and I would pile them all up on two days, start school at 8 and finish at 6; the other days I would work both at my part time job, and at my internship. Just don't get sloshed everyday, and you should be ok.
The more you take upon yourself, the less you have time to surf the web. It's good to be productive.
Doing a masters program with some dissertations is a different thing though...
Remember, you will always be a salesman, no matter how fancy your title is.

Part-time work during college (Originally Posted: 11/06/2010)
Hey guys,
http://www.razume.com/documents/17252
I was thinking about adding a bullet or somehow incorporating the fact that I averaged 30 hours a week at my "post-close mortgage audit" position while being a full-time student. Do you think this is appropriate in my case? I worked there for all 4 years during undergrad and did not have any traditional summer internships...
Also, I only mention my clubs in 2 lines on the very bottom. Should I bring these up and detail them more or is it okay because of my amount of work experience?
Thanks again!
Great res, and yes go for it.
I would put it under your Education section as a sub-bullet, right under "Awards". You could say: Time Management: Full course load while working 30 hours a week at Bulge Bracket Bank throughout college
But great resume overall. Good job.
You spelled restaurant wrong
...I know, I mentioned that in my other post.

So, open ended subject. Which finance sect. would you think pays the most for undergrads right out of school? PE, IB, hedgefunds, etc? Bonuses included, in my mind IB analyst would make the most, but I haven't really looked into all of the other options and don't really know what else could beat it. What does everyone else think?
no one respond to this troll. use the search function b1tch.
haha relax
lol people on WSO are so paranoid about trolls it's almost comical
stockbrokers

or gs principal strats perhaps
I thought they shut that down?

Pay is relative to the location you're in. Being in NYC and saying "I MAKE $140k ALL-IN, BALLIN!" is not as good as being in Cincinnati and making $70k working in P&G. Cost of living matters.
Except no matter what, Cincinnati and anywhere else in Ohio is not ballin no matter what. Ask lebron
Cost of living isn't shit if the quality of life sucks dick too
You can make over $9000 in research.
Research isn't what it used to be.
do you mean where the average is highest or where the potential is the highest?
I know guys at top prop shops who pulled in 120k+ GBP first year all in
What is the industry average highest in cities with large financial sectors eg: NYC, LA, Chicago, Houston
It's better than tree fiddy.
I know a couple guys doing HF out of ugrad making more than NY BB IB.
Those guys are not normal though.
High end escort...assuming you have the "chops".
Top bucket at Citadel is ~220k first year. DE Shaw probably pays a lot to analysts (~120+bonus or so). Prop shops with performance comp if you are a star at Jump/IMC/Optiver or other places that have you trading almost immediately (Jane Street/SIG/DRW have ~1 year year training programs) could pay the most. Hudson River Trading, AQR, QVM, Two Sigma and GETCO pay a lot, anywhere from 150-300 first year likely.
PE Analyst gigs at Megafunds probably pay a lot as well.
these guys working in oil fields in the arctic. But these guys are tougher than BX restructuring interns.

Jobs to have while in undergrad (Originally Posted: 10/14/2014)
I am going to be majoring in Economics at a nontarget undergrad. Are there any jobs I could have while studying that would be a benefit to me in the future?
You could see if there are any student research assistant positions available with a professor in the econ or related department at your school. Or look around your school's local surroundings for any financial firms you could interview at for an internship over the semester. Personally I think the best way to do it during the semester is to just focus on crushing your grades and getting what needs to be done for summer internships, making sure you're getting solid ECs in, and working a part time job somewhere low stress to have some money to go out on the weekends and have fun.
Money in college (Originally Posted: 03/25/2011)
Alright I will state my question first and that is "How did you guys make money in college" Now obviously I can type that question in on Google and get a bunch of results telling me to get a part time job or maybe mow some lawns but honestly fuck that. The reason I am asking that question on this website is because these are the guys I want to listen to. You are the ones that are making X amount of money on wall street and on a forum discussing it. This is probably the only forum on the internet that I know about that I can respect. I mean internet forums are pretty gay if you ask me with all the emo forums, video game forums and moms blanketing their opinions. But this forum is different, white collared men with MBAs on an Internet Forum? Thats why I am putting my question on this website. If I sound like a douche bag on this post I apologize but I am just curious what stories I am going to hear. You are the guys who are making money so I am just wondering what are some possibilities on making money in college. Legal or not illegal (kidding but maybe not just watched boiler room) So asshole remarks are welcome and if i don't get any serious opinions so be it this is monkeying around anyway.
My parents worked hard?
I worked nights as a bouncer in a psych ward homie. Sack up.
I had at least two jobs every semester of college, working between 10-20 hours a week. Tutoring, tour guide, building admin, etc. Kept me in Chinese food and beer.
Wendy's > no income.
TA in some classes.
part time internships that continued from the school year. it's a challenge to balance with school sometimes, but i had great internships all four years that set me up well for a BB IBD full time offer.
*continued from the summer into the school year
Tutoring, research... luckily didn't have to work too many hours
If your looking for trading advice or anything like that I doubt you will get it here. Most people would honestly advice you take unpaid internships as we feel the experience and boost to your CV will be much better than a few grand made over the course of the semester. However if you are intent on making some cash working for your school is an easy thing to do, no commute and flexible hours around classes.
Also I am going to a non target school so larger population and larger amount of dumb asses to scam??
Sell drugs? Run a sports betting operation? Play poker? Pimp sorostitutes?
Its definitely possible to subsidize some boozing playing online poker. I know for me the big problem is that I can't afford to play with enough money to make a lot of money, so its really time consuming. I think its better than doing other shit tho. Could try it out.
online poker = too many bots, scam rings now. 2006 was the last of the golden years where the fish were plenty.
i work at IT repairing computers and teaching people how to do stuff on their computers
whore your self out? There's gotta be plenty of lonely wives around.
Unpaid/paid internships ...and trade a lot on the side
Whatever you do don't scam old laddies.
If you need to come here for ideas on how to make money without working then you will never make money without working. To answer your question, Bartending is a great side job for students because you can make a decent amount of money and it is actually fun.
Good luck getting the job, unless you know the owner or have ginormous tits.
WTF? Why do you assume most ppl here have MBAs and are making a lot of money and are successful? Second, how do you think people make money in college if they don't have a part time job??? You don't mean to sound like a douche but you sound a bit worse. I won't say like what cause I don't mean to sound like an ass :).
Anyway, the only way you gonna make money in college is by working and some by trading (which is still a form of work).
I waited tables and bartended full time.
Slingin' crack rock.
tutored SATs at $30/hour through a local company. didn't get many hours so i worked as a cashier as well.
Poker both live and online (games have gotten considerably harder in the past 3 years).
Male Escort Service =D
Myself and a friend started brewing our own beer and selling it in keg form to frat houses and other groups that threw parties. Eventually we started hosting events at the college bars - we didn't get to sell our beer, but we kept all of the cover charged.
Friends of mine ran a poker game in their house. They would rake X dollars every 30 minutes or something. It was very profitable, but it was also very illegal and eventually some not no nice people found out about it and demanded a cut.
A buddy who went to law school started a company called Tickets, which helped people fight traffic tickets. He ended up selling it for a boatload when he graduated.
1) held on to a diversified portfolio of income producing assets
2) dated a rich girl who's parents lived close to campus and liked to drop by and throw money around
Curious as to how you had the original means for this portfolio considering it would have to have been a fairly large portfolio to produce a decent income.
I mostly tutored to make money. It’s great because if you tutor for your university you’ll make around $9 (that’s what I got), they will completely work around your schedule and many times people don’t even come in so you are getting paid to do homework. If you tutor privately, you can charge even more (I hear between $15-30) and have a very flexible schedule. Every once in awhile when I was really strapped for cash I would DD for a night (Charge $2 a person for usually very short trips = lots of quick cash). Haha, and the last why I got is to sell plasma. Roommate does it and makes $60/week for two donations/week,
Found a job through the university in their property management group. $12/hr, roughly 20hrs/week. It was awesome money at the time. Didn't have to pay for rent, so it covered beer, food, clothes, etc.
I bartend/barback at a college bar in our downtown. Money's good. Anywhere from $75-100 for a 5 hour night. Try to find a gig like that. I started as a door man/bouncer if you will and got "promoted" after a few months.
Definitely doesn't help your GPA though; sometimes getting hammered for free is just too tempting....
not my primary source of income, but if you want to make a few extra bucks you can get a router and share internet with ppl. i have 8 ppl i share internet with, charge them 20 each, and they take care of my cell phone bill every month.
I sold weed.
Ditto
i had a tutoring/teaching job that paid $50/hr, so i do that for 2 months in the summer and rack up the money to spend during the school year...
I've had sales jobs and i now have a tutoring job.
What jobs stand out during recruiting do you think?
If you have any ability to play poker, go on exchange to hong kong, and spend your weekends in macau playing poker (the poker glory days are still here in Asia - people don't have a clue how to play). I'm doing this now for my last semester, and am making more money than I will when I start working as an analyst FT starting this summer.
I tutored for 50$ an hour and found an arbitrage strategy (not scallable unfortunately). In my last year of college I was saving over 2000$ a month. Also, I figured out a way to get my alcohol free in most bars, so partying didn't cost me an arm and a leg like it does for many students. I was also joining every business/whatever competition that paid cash prizes.
If I could do it again, I would try to launch a proper business on a larger scale.
EDIT: I must stress that I did not do it alone. We were (still are) a very close group of 4-5 friends.
My parents gave me 100$ per week until I started tutoring more extensively. Summer internships always paid well (I had 3 stints) and I was careful with my money.
My GS homey went super long russian bonds post default in '98 and made enough to lease a penthouse and a 7-series his senior year.
Math Tutor, Live Poker, and Resident Assistant. RA was a great job because you get substantial pay (Room + Board) for minimal hours a week and while you're on duty you can still do homework or hang out.
I used to play on poker stars a few years back. My older brother only gave me 5 dollars but turned it into 100 but then I got in trouble haha but what do you mean play in Macau? http://www.pokerstarsmacau.com/ Play in these tourneys online?
You're in college. Sell weed, live well.
for my first 2 years of undergrad i worked at starbucks(good place for networking)....last two years I traded my FX retail account for income. My parents also gave me $50 a week for expenses(gas, extra food, Booze).
Thing i wish i would have done----a couple of my buddies were THE campus bookies, fucking TONS of stupid kids trying to bet with thousands of student loan money. They ran it all year round, on a good week they would clear around 2k, on a bad week around $800. If you have a decent amount of money going into college(>5k),and you know sports and the structures of how bookmaking works, I would say to partner up with a couple buddies and run a book, because you will make a killing.
I would recommend people start some type of business in their spare time. Identify something that would make life better as a student, or find a market that is poorly run around campus, or just something you are passionate about.
I started a business my sophomore year which forced me to learn a bunch of tech skills, develop client skills, and learn to work on a team. Even if your business isn't too successful, you are essentially paying ~$90 (for the LLC) to have a ridiculously strong bullet point on your resume. If the business does do well, you can make an hourly rate that would be multiples higher than normal college jobs.
Almost every interview I ever had, the person would ask me about the business and it was a very unique accomplishment to highlight practically any strength I wanted.
RA isn't bad either, as mentioned above.
Coded up some low-key algorithms for FX/commodities trading in C++ ; got hold of some large datasets for backtesting ; had a friend write a Java script for automatic execution. Worked out real well with the right money management in place. Once it was up and running it was pretty much stress-free (unlike going crazy trading on fundamentals). Yes, it might be more time-consuming and less straight-forward than a part-time job and you also need some money to get started, but it taught me a tremendous amount about the markets, pushed my C++ to a new level and certainly gave me a lot to talk about in interviews.
Did you buy the datasets? Generally finding (free) error free databases free of survivorship bias is impossible. Just curious since the cost of purchasing such datasets could be prohibitive if you don't have enough capital.
Did you generate trading signals on MACD or Stochastic cross-overs?
Just kidding. I'm currently learning MQL and I intend to potentially automate my trend following "system".
Regarding technicals, I too used to be quite skeptical, but there is no doubt in my mind that I've become a lot more profitable when using technicals compared to impulsive trades based on fundamentals. I guess it would be ideal to use both. It took me a while to realize that the most important aspect is having a back-tested system and following it with discipline.
I'm curious to know what you guys mean by "trading FX". I have yet to see someone come up with an actual strategy rather than disguised gambling.
i learned some programming languages (mql, lua) and compiled a profitable algo strategy. I also used a very profitable discretionary system.
Apply to be an RA (covers your room and board, basically an excuse to make 5 to 10k a semester for going through training and doing 2 hrs of work/wk)
Work-study --> easy 1 to 2k a semester for sitting there and doing your hw
High-risk portfolio --> Chuck a few grand at some high-risk investment theses. Know your risk profile... you're young so go balls to the wall with penny stocks, etc... I ended up making 5k as a freshman in one semester by going long C/BAC at the bottom of the market. This has the added effect of improving your knowledge of financial markets.
Part-time internship, start your own business, tutoring, etc...
--------- (gray area)
Taking tests for other people, writing essays for them, doing their HW --> Was offered $300 to take a final once. Didn't do it but it on principle, but it would be very easy to get away with (only applies in certain cases)
Sell weed
Besides my internships, I sold fake ids, ages ago, and traded options in my brokerage account. I never sold a single id to anyone on my campus. I had a network of 10-12 buddies, what I would call wholesalers, at different colleges that would "promote" my services. As long as I received $80 per id I didn't care what my buddies sold them for. I ended up perfecting the id and realized that I was on top of my game so I might as well get out on top. I later heard that a FoF's relative worked for the dmv and thought the id I made was flawless. I didn't make a ton of money from the operation, but I made enough to have fun, pay for my partying, and travel while in school.
much respect. I never made IDs but I definitely benefited from people like you haha.
Thank you.

You DO have to do a little research and make sure the courses aren't constantly updating to new editions, and that the books you purchase are in high demand (i think Amazon has a sales ranking) but i made 5-6k at the end of semesters by purchasing back old books for double what the bookstore was offering to buy them back at, and then re-listing them online for double what i bought them for.

My freshman/sophmore years, I got an on campus job in the computer labs. I would make sure I signed up for the late night shift (7-11pm) as the labs were usually empty then, and I would generally do about 10-20 minutes of real work on a shift. Essentially I collected checks to do homework and talk on IM, though the pay was just above minimum. During those summers I waited tables at a nicer place, and made bank- I was working 60 hours a week and busting my ass, but I made more there than I did at my first job.
Later as the .com boom reached its peak, I got a job that only required me to do slightly more work for double the pay, and was viable work experience. I got a real internship my last two summers and winters that paid well.
I was the opposite of the typical poor college student. I had no debt due to scholarships, and plenty of free cash flow. I didn't even play the markets then, though I should have.
