Contacting Ivey Alumni

Drama — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 19:27:08 -0400

Hi, All
I go to Richard Ivey. I am well aware of Ivey's alumni network, but am unsure how to start contacting them. The alumni website isn't at all helpful, I've been told to cold call, to go to alumni homecomings, and emailing them. How would I go about finding the emails of alumni, so I can get started? Please Help
Any Advice is appreciated, DrAmA

Excuse this useless post, but I just got an offer at R.B.C. Capital Markets, in the Private Equity division (Tech Group). I'll answer any questions anyone has about comp, lifestyle, how to get in PE from undergrad, experiences, technical, interview, brainteaser, quantitative, or networking opps, exit opportunities or anything else you can come up with. I'll answer your question as quickly as possible.

Goldman Sachs Toronto Office

I am interested in the Goldman Sachs Toronto office. Obviously, it's a regional office, but how's the deal flow? Does anyone have any experience or any knowledge of this office? How does the deal flow stack up to The Big Five Canadian Banks? is this a reputable office to be at? I hear they have a hedge fund mandate. If anyone knows ANYTHING about Goldman Sachs Canada, please post.
Much Appreciated.

What would you do if, except for you, the world, and everything and everyone in it just froze and time stopped, for 10 days?

I saw these in a SoHo boutique, I bet they could help a lot of people here wake up, especially the first year analysts or summer analysts who have a hard time adjusting to the new schedule of their job.

CLOCKY: This alarm clock will FORCE you to get out of bed. That's because it rolls away, so you have to get out of bed to make it stop ringing. Or: Blowfly Alarm Clock, the same as the clocky version, only it flies! Now who says people working hundred hour weeks can't get some exercise? But seriously, it works, gets you in the habit of getting off the bed.

Amex Black Card

YES!!! I got it, the exclusive invitation to American Express Centurion Card!!!! To get this epitome of cool, you need to spend a minimum of $250K, and over a million dollars in liquid assets. The card credit limit is determined by the credit history of the holder. This will definitely aid in my long-untreated alcoholism, and my inconspicuous spending which is sure to hide deep emotional issues back from my days at Philips Exeter (Andover, you suck, our endowment is more than yours!)
