A question as a lateral hire
This may be naive, but I thought I'd see what others thought.
Currently in a position to potentially move to another shop on the other side of the country (moving from east to west coast). When inevitably asked "why X" city, would it sound silly to also include that's where my girlfriend is from? For reference, currently am a first year analyst. I do have some family there, which has helped a lot--but would it improve my case to also include the girlfriend part since it may signal some long-term commitment to the area/job? I'm worried it comes off as a little young/naive if I let a girlfriend influence a work/life decision(which I am, to be fair--but hoping it comes across more as commitment than just me being retarded/"dumb and in love" or some shit)
Thanks in advance.
It does come off as young and naive honestly. It's not worth mentioning since you have no idea where you and your girlfriend will be even a year from now
What group? If Tech, Silicon Valley is a good sell.
I did that OP. Nobody cares about anything less than a wife.
I said that the area I lateraled to is where my girlfriend and I want to be long-term. People tend not to carewhy you want to move to a certain area to be honest. It's more about selling them on the change of group/industry coverage/firm.
