when can i remove my gpa for hf roles?

For your first job after a banking analyst stint, you need to show your GPA. I get it - you still need to show your academic credentials because you literally just graduated by the time you are interviewing.

But for your second job post banking (4 years post graduation), do you still need to show your GPA for elite hf jobs? On one hand, I don't see why your grades still matter 4 years out. On the other hand, people in this industry care about a lot of shit that doesn't practically matter.

So what's the verdict - include or not include?
