family ties (hint: lies about where fictional family lives can't be verified) or industry focus should be your answer to this.
So when you interview at different locations, emphasize the industry focus different locations provide (SF=tech, NYC=almost everything if not all, LA=consumer/retail, Toronto=a mix but NR is most known)?
What if you gun for an industry that is not related to the industry focus of the geographical location? You would need to have something to back up your interest in the city itself as well. I was just wondering what the general interest in the city is like. For example in NYC is really fast-paced. What are some common "culture" of the cities like SF,LA,Toronto? Thanks
How about something that is not FT but for summer (not leading up to FT since I am not junior)? Having aunts living there may be irrelevant at this point say if it is still early on in your college years. Thanks a lot
If you actually live in the city you are recruiting for (i.e., you live in Toronto and recruiting there), it's very easy to say 'family' for both Summer and FT recruiting. Toronto is an easier one since it's a different country and a lot of bankers/PE guys/etc have moved back to Toronto from US because of roots and desires to build a life there, etc.
If it's summer recruiting, then for something like SF or LA, maybe emphasize more about wanting to be in a particular industry that the group you're interviewing with is particularly strong in. And if you've already done NY before, you can easily say NY is great, but I'm looking for a city that's more ________ like _______. Not difficult to fill in the gap - NY is great but not everyone's cup of tea.
For FT for SF or LA, you could mention family if you do have deep family ties, but I think it's a stronger argument to express interest in the field the group is strong in. Cause unless you have a lot of closer ties there (like parents/grandparents, etc), "my aunt lives there" is a bit weak as a primary reason - it should just be a supporting line - "I like the industry, I really prefer the city to NY because..., and it also helps that I have some family there"
SBed. Thanks
Your best bet for convincing them of a location would be the sector.
Media for example in LA Tech for example in SF
If you really want to be shady you can make up answers that "make sense".
Basically when you are trying to pitch someone to move to a different location as a low-end employee you have to have a strong logical reason for the move. Sector specific or a legitimate personal life change.
Another spin on it can be headquarters (weak sell) and boutique firms (stronger sell for real niche firms), but that doesn't help you for the majority of the interviews.
