yeah i heard TMT is top notch, but i don't think i'm going to be able to get into that because it's on top of everyone's list. how is consumer/retail or healthcare?

also, not that i should be thinking this, but which group has better hours? haha

 

also, can anyone confirm that the conversion rate for GS SA --> FT is really low compared to other BB firms? does anyone have a percentage?

thanks!

People on this messageboard will probably tell you otherwise about GS as a whole, but I don't think GS yields less full timers per summer class. For the specific groups I know of, the yield was very good (like every other bank). For example, I know in 2006 the Industrial group had 12 interns, gave out 11 offers, 10 accepted. Last year, the Health Care group gave out similar offers. So the moral of the story is: Don't suck, and you should be fine.

As for the person who asked if summer analysts would get worked less than full times the answer is that summers generally are useless for a few weeks while they wait to get fully staffed, and then they work much harder than the full time analysts for the remainder of the summer.
