I was just curious if your BB asked for your transcript upon employment? This applies to both SA and FT.

Yes, in both instances.
I assume all of them do it.
I'm getting the sense that you are asking whether it is possible for you to fudge your GPA on your resume.
Citi indeed
Yes (Deutsche).
most of the time, yes
however, not necessary transcript, you can also write your grades down and give a contact of the uni if they want to check it
i also heared that city doesnt ask for transcripts
Yes, a noun doesn't ask for transcripts because it's a noun!
whoops, thanks for pointing that out :)
Credit Suisse does not require them. i know a FT guy (he left the job after a year to go to grad school) that lied about his gpa pretty badly ("rounded" a 2.9 to like 3.7) and they never found out, so I can only assume they never asked. He received his bonus and all before quitting too.
No, in both cases..(BBs) Maybe I was overlooked. I was asked to hand in an original copy of my diploma though. I might have submitted my unofficial transcript before interviews.
Lots of sophomore business frat kids lie and say that they're juniors and never get their transcript checked at lower BBs and elite boutiques, so it's definitely possible...
I've always found that not lying saves me from worrying about these things. But maybe that's just me.
Never been asked for a transcript after being hired, but I'm sure they could've called my school and asked for it as part of a background check. Same as user_, I think I might've submitted an unofficial transcript, but I could be wrong.
Submitted several unofficial transcripts as part of applying, didn't get far enough to have to submit an official.
