Yea whatever else they want to go
why the fuck are you even on this site if you do nothing but spew bullshit
I thought you were banned from this forum? Mods please re-ban this guy.
And how do potential employers learn about your track record and why would you be truthful if they are bad? It may matter if you are a PM, especially if you blew up too spectacularly, words might get around. But those who market themselves well, often do get a second and third chances.
It’s literally the first thing they’d ask...
And why would the candidate be honest about it? Not like the interviewer has the means to verify things. Unless it's a Bill Hwang level blow-up, chances are people have no idea what really happened. Some of the worst performers at my previous funds had no problem moving on, so long as they knew how to pitch themselves. Industry is full of bullshitters if you don't already know.
i've seen traders who blow up at a fund go back to the sellside...goto fintech...go into brokering /sales...lots of PWM....a few got into direct to consumer businesses...healthy foods
AM, IR, ER are the most common. If they are a killer salesman then PWM, but this rarely makes since considering the initial comp downgrade & that a very slim % of people in PWM make close to HF comp.
