Resume for UK Positions

Resume for UK Positions

Hi all,

I'm applying for an SA position at a boutique bank in London. I'm going to a US university right now so I was wondering what changes I would have to make to my resume. Would I have to make small changes like convert my GPA to the UK equivalent, or would they be much larger? Thank you for your help.

Come to think of it, what happens to ML's huge UK tax credit post BofA?

This briefly came to mind when the merger was announced, but the curiosity has gotten the better of me, so I'm hoping the experts here can shed some light on this.

If some of you recall, FT (amongst others) ran an article in mid-August describing how Merill booked their credit derivative losses ($29B or so worth) though their UK subsidiary, where net losses can be carried forward to future years as a tax credit. (article here: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/369b723e-6a52-11dd-83e8-0000779fd18c.html)

After the merger, what becomes of this credit? (arguments against the validity of this accounting trick aside)

I'm assuming this will depend in part on the way the UK entity now fits inside the global corporate structure, something which I admittedly know next to nothing about right now.

Blackstone Real Estate London and Starwood Capital

Anyone know anything in specific about these two Real Estate groups? I'm trying to figure out where to look up prior deals and to know if there's any relevant news for them. Search is turning up nothing useful. Thanks.

Searching for London Flat Share

I'm a professional looking for a 12 month flat share in London, within a 30 minute commute of the city. Ideal roommate(s) will be outgoing and social but that should stop short of pumping music late on a Wednesday night. I'm prepared to move in immediately if it checks out. Open to both students and professionals.

Please PM me if you have an available room. Include the address and a weekly quote.
