My favorite one is this guy who had 68 experiences, yes you heard correctly, SIXTY EIGHT experiences. He was still in undergrad. 

 

Good, this person needs to know how cringe this is and adjust accordingly for their own benefit lol

It's not unusual to add the former name of your company for clarification purposes, btw. 

Yeah it's normal when you've worked in the company when it had the old name. This guy has worked at PTJ for 2 months...

 

I am on his side - OP, how can you be so bothered? Why all the effort of screenshotting and making a new thread on WSO? It's not that bad.

However, saying that PJT is previously Blackstone is an exaggeration. This is what Wikipedia says but the timeline is wrong. Paul J. Taubman started PJT and for its first deal it was a one man band. Then, he hired senior bankers and built it up a bit. Only afterwards they got Blackstone's advisory division... The PJT Analyst in the pic should learn the history of the firm. My personal opinion is that PJT's life could be turned into a great Hollywood movie.

It's extremely cringe, the forum is made for posting this kind of stuff so don't see why he / she wouldn't post
