Might be a silly question, but I'm bored out of mind in this general-ed psychology class I'm taking to fulfill the 3 credits I need to graduate this May. I'll be working FT with (GS/JPM/MS) this July and I've noticed that there is already an employee who works in my company with the same exact name as mine. How would they assign my email address? I also do not have a middle name.
Curious.

Well the no middle name adds an interesting twist, but
first initial last name @
first name . last name @
or you could become first name last name the second.
If you're smart enough for GS/MS/JPM, I'm a little disturbed by this question.
At MS it would First Name.Middle Initial.Last [email protected] [email protected]. Possible the other email would get the middle initial
I do agree, however I was a firm a few years back where this happened. It could have been an error, but it was weird none the less
since you said you don't have a middle name, maybe first.x.last@ms/gs.com?
No one on this forum can tell you what they will do, especially when you factor in the weird circumstance where you don't have a middle name.
you'll probably end up with a 1 or a 2. Maybe change your name if it bugs you that much to have something that looks like a gmail address on your eggshell business card.
might get a 1 or 2. Good luck getting laid when girls see that on your business card
You could also get [email protected].. or [email protected].. or [email protected].. or (if you're super lucy) just [email protected]. Etc. The list goes on. There's no way to predict it. Stop worrying about it. This is the least of your worries.
If it's JPM, they'll probably insert an x for where your middle initial would be. So first.x.last@jpm
