Dish The Dirt????

newbie2banking — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 11:00:58 -0400

Two years ago, I interviewed for a position with a very, very, very prestigious firm, and the team never got back to me, even though I emailed and called every week for about a month.

I'm quite certain I did not say anything wrong... Should I name and shame them on a public internet forum for being the insensitive and arrogant pr*cks that they are?

Could be quite fun actually.

Your opinions please...

OK, so there's this girl... Not just any girl... but THE girl. I'm talking the kind of girl who you would quit your job for and disown your family, if she asked... She is THAT fine.

I've never spoken to her, but to be honest, as long as she doesnt sound like a man, I don't care what she says.

We take the same train in the mornings.

To the PLAYAS on the board (and some of the more experienced PLAYETTES)... How would you work it?

Subprime cleared up IB rankings

Could one say that the better banks were hurt less than their peers regarding the subprime mess?

Think about it, GS, had a great year, MS didnt do too badly, neither did Lehman. Citi bombed, Bear bombed... Thoughts?

Being Blocked.

I interviewed with a BB, and don't feel that I really clicked with the VP. I can get to other team-members though via contacts (quite a large team). Should I try and get 'around' him, or just accept it, as he'll have a say in the ultimate decision anyways?

Advice regarding whether and/or how to go about this would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Laid Back Banks

newbie2banking — Mon, 14 Jan 2008 11:53:42 -0500

Which of the banks are the most laid-back? Such casual clothing, not presumptious, down-to-earth ppl... etc...

Any ideas?

Activist Hedge Funds

newbie2banking — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 09:55:08 -0500

Fellas, what kind of background/skillset is required to join such a fund?

Are their strategies pretty much "sell off assets or we sell your assets"?

Resources would be great...

So slow...

I love this site, but to be frank, ever since the facelift, I find it probably the slowest and clunkiest site I use on a daily basis.

Please, please sort it out because its too much hassle and I know that I frequent it far less than I used to, and am sure others feel the same.

Going into PE

newbie2banking — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 09:27:24 -0400

Is it worth going into PE at the moment?

Any difference between size funds determining worthwhile move or not?
