Firms with most aura
Currently a senior at a target hs (Exeter, Andover, Trinity) heading to a public ivy (uva, umich, iu kelley), and I'm planning for my future. Looking to maximize opportunities and curious to know which firm has the most aura? Should i do investment banking or straight buyside (know MDs at both). More aura to do apollo/blackstone or GS/jefferies out of school? Want to stay on this prestigious track and want a females jaw to drop when hearing the firm im gonna work at. Any advice is appreciated!
Is this a joke?
No, why wouldn’t an 18yr old kid want to get laid bc his iob
PWP/Gugg
Purple branding exudes aura tbh
Definitely rage bait but kinda funny. On the off chance you are serious:
1. Congrats on IU Kelley, I hope the admissions officers find this post
2. The only jaw dropping is yours when you don't get into IBW, and the female's* when she sees how much weight you put on in your analyst years.
3. Because you'll be attending a "public ivy" I'd recommend recruiting for "global boutiques" like William Blair
4. Congrats on your LinkedIn connection with a SVP at Jefferies. Unfortunately, as of right now, he's got bigger issues than having to field a painful call from his cousin's friend's insufferable son.
Best of luck with IB/Buyside recruitment!
Obviously it’s a troll. If I were an AO, I’d let this dude date my daughter and give him a full ride
appreciate it bro would love to take her for a ride
let your daughter ride him??
Thanks, I've gotten my acceptance to IU Kelley already and am waiting on pending decisions at the other schools which i have legacy for. Is IU not as high caliber as other schools? Know they sent kids everywhere to all banks, jefferies, cvp, gs, pjt rssg, apollo, bx - placement really can't get better than that so not sure i understand the hate but alright.
Also for a more serious note, does Jefferies really have that little aura? Have pull there and some BBs and MFs, is it that much worse of a name? Just want to aurmaxx here thanks
best path is BOA associate
public ivy is crazy LMAO
its like how WashU/ Vanderbilt kids say they are the Harvard of the midwest
ps: no girl will look you differently because you work at BX/ GS
edit: I went to washu...
WashU deadass is the Harvard of the Midwest. T15 school
Crazy copium. It's currently ranked outside the T20 and is only really good for research and premed. also uchicago and nwu clear and umich and und are better for finance.

Love ‘em, hate ‘em, I think the answer is always Goldman.
so goldman is max aura? how does that fare to a jefferies or a blackstone?
Why is jefferies even in the conversation
Maybe 20 years ago nowadays CVP/PJT/EVR has the most aura and it's not close
To young’ins maybe.
I’m telling you though, Goldman just carries weight and will have a reputation that lasts a lifetime.
Maybe to people acc working in high-finance but to the layman its still def Goldman/JPM/etc.
You did not just say "Target High School."
honestly there are. i did not personally attend those private schools but my classmates who did had a very easy time getting them on the phone/referrals from alum at these schools, even ones who attended on scholarships and weren't rich
Women’s jaws will never drop at the name of a firm, unless you’re talking about undergrad women looking for an internship. To the young guys on here, in terms of what you can control, the only things that make women’s jaws drop:
The confident and ambitious presence that comes as a result of having put forth the effort to achieve all of the above
Money from IB is just a tool (a very powerful tool) that makes it easier to achieve the rest of the things, but it alone isn’t enough to impress anybody in my experience. First couple years I was working 24/7 despite making money women just didn’t care. It wasn’t until I started spending that money to build a compelling appearance and lifestyle that women started turning heads. Guys need to understand women can’t see your savings and investments and job title on your forehead.
Earning and saving and investing are incredibly important, they just aren’t super compelling to most women alone, same with job titles and such.
Facts brother. Honestly being ripped while working a great job is what will set you apart. Most guys that are ripped work 9-5
Yea the answer is not the job or the firm, it's making the $$ while being generally a catch. Fitness, life exp, $$, style, hobbies, social circle, etc. Need it all. I know plenty of douchebags at top tier firms who go out to bars and dates and get 0 play because they come across as snobby chubby aholes
This is very very accurate. Job title / firm / money alone don't get you that much - it's combining it with the 'best version of yourself' factors you mention above. It's just super hard to do that, which is why I think people should exit IB, limiting paycut as much as possible, while doing something that at the very least gives you your weekends back.
Lmfaoo you're basically asking for IU Kelley to get shit on with something like this. Why do students from there vehemently think they're a respected school
When you’re at as prestigious a school as IU Kelley (PBUI), you must exercise extreme prudence when choosing where to begin your ascent to MOTU status. If you’re not careful you’ll downgrade and tarnish your elite reputation. Fortunately I can think of at least once place that approaches the immense prestige of those hallowed halls… pays $140K base btw.
Which is?
So we know you're a senior at Trinity as no one would say "Exeter, Andover, Trinity" if they went to the first two and you're headed to IU Kelley since no one would refer to that as a "public ivy."
Those dings to your resume nonwithstanding, think you could pull Jefferies.
If you got into IU kelley from those kind of private schools, I feel sorry for your parents spending 70K a year
Well maybe it was a relative safety for him. UVA/UMICH though...eh, I'd still feel a type of way if thats all my kid got into. Unless we reside in VA or MI though and its an instate tuition consideration.
I mean 200 kids from my public high school in NYC get into Umich every year. You don't need to send your kids to Exeter or Andover for good college results.
Bro what, UMich is undeniably a target for most firms and holds a lot of prestige in p much any field. Obv not in the upper echelon, but elite nonetheless
"GS/jefferies" just say your dads an MD at the latter bro...
Chicks know fuckall about which firms are best
Chicks do know what Goldman Sachs is though.
RBC by far has the most aura. Chicks quiver when you say you work for the ROYAL Bank of Canada. Thats some King shit
Females jaws don’t drop if you work, especially slaving away working like a bitch. They only drop when you’re so fucking loaded that you don’t have to work. At least the hot trophy wifes ones anyways.
Definitely has to be RBC for you
Females' jaws don't drop when you call em females, so just be careful. You don't wanna be associated with Andrew Tate
Tell your dad congrats on Jefferies
IU Kelley isn't a public ivy lol
