Hey guys,

Who has heard of Ernst & Young Transfer Pricing?

Has anyone heard of the EY Transfer Pricing Group? It sounds pretty cool, like they do due dilligence and get to travel alot. Does this fall under the TAS heading, or is it something else entirely? Has anyone had any experience with it or heard anything about it?

The Dreaded Weakness Question

It seems as though many people are flying through their interviews, and then are struck dumb and begin to stutter when asked "what is your weakness" What are some answers that you guys have used when interviewing for finance positions? What weaknesses have you been able to make sound convincing, while not negatively impacting your interview?

Simple question, not self-validation, who has leveraged PWN into IBD??

Hey guys, I know that a lot of people ask these questions just so they can masturbate to the response when a hs student tells them, "chances are good." However, that is most certainly not me. I just finished my sophomore year at a top-five liberal arts college, and I am working at MS PWM this summer. I was wondering who else out there has done PWM soph. year and then IBD junior year. If so, please let me know how the transition went for you, and if you have any unique advice on how to spin PWM to IB recruiters.

Top Five Liberal Arts?

Who went to one of the top five LACs? Ie. Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore, Carleton, Middlebury? If you did, how did the BB recruiting process go for you? I am genuinely curious, and would greatly appreciate input. Thanks
