I just had a question regarding the background check. I transferred schools at the end of my freshman year. At my previous school my gpa was just a 3.41, at my current school my gpa is a 3.78.

Just wondering has Goldman pulled with crazy tactic with any of you on here. It would be exciting to hear just how crazy that must have been because it just happened to me after being put on hold. Needless to say....I was shocked that I still don't even know the situation.

Goldman Ops. worth it in my situation

Hi all, I'm in the interviewing process right now for SA.

I have been put on hold with Goldman PWM after their Superday. I told Goldman PWM that I was interviewing with Goldman Operations, which I believe is the reason why I was 'on hold' with PWM. PWM is probably waiting to see if I advance to the Superday with Ops. (I most probably will) until making their final decision.

Superday, asking the same questions to all interviewers?

Is it okay to ask the same questions to all interviewers considering it is kind of tough to think of 3 or 4 different questions for each of the 4 different interviewers?

Notifying JPM of an upcoming Superday with GS. Will this help??

I applied online and received a first round, 2 on 1, 20 minute phone interview with JPMorgan. Needless to say, I was definitely surprised my resume was looked at, let alone receiving an actual interview from an online application.

My two failed interviews have lead me to this strategy, is it a good one?

JambaMan — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 14:18:36 -0500

I have a feeling the reason why I failed to make it to the second-round, Superday interviews at two BBs was the fact that I answered the questions in the wrong manner.

I didn't really state how my past experience would be relevant to finance. Also, I didn't give very concrete examples where I pinpointed a past experience.

What are the advantages of a fund of funds structure vs. straight pe?

JambaMan — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 12:01:56 -0500

I said a private equity fund of fund structure allows investors to place their money in many different industries instead of just one or two. For example, a fund of funds allows investors to have their money invested in real-estate, technology, retail, venture capital etc...
