You can put it on your resume - toward the bottom in the interests section.
Do not put your ARR or CAGR on there, unless you also put your AUM. -- Joking. Don't do it.
if your account/portfolio has a relatively large nominal amount, put that on there too.
Yeah you can put it. I don't usually put it even though I have a pretty high return because they really don't care, especially in banking. If you have spare space for it, you can state your returns in a modest one liner.
I'd leave out mentioning your return. It think it is kind of douchey. I would simply mention someting in your "interests" section about being interested in the markets.
Yea, do it so that you can demonstrate that you know absolutely nothing about banking and get weeded out in the pre-screening round.
Do it so I can take your spot.
seriously no one cares. do that with a very low sharpe ratio and then a few hedge funds might take notice. otherwise never speak of this again.
Just to be safe. Not saying you've miscalculated, but you'd be amazed at the number of people (finance-types included) who can't appropriately calculate their PA's rate of return. Just better to not let an interviewer question numbers and simply leave them off.
That is retarded. Trust me, no one cares what your 10 g's made you in a year. Unless you are wanting to get into PWM or Private Bank, that info is useless. Instead, mention verbally that you "have a passion" for the markets and that you have some money in it, if they probe further, than let them know.
Please do not include it in your resume as you will be laughed at amongst the interviewer and his peers.
thanks, i appreciate the comments. i have to agree that i think it would be douchey to include return...
so im assuming that any fake money that i have invested in an online trading simulation website should be left off my resume too?
Do not put in any sort of return on your resume (fzjgdk - ESPECIALLY NOT if it's w/ fucking play money). It really is douchey and most bankers don't know shit about personal finances, so they really won't care.
let the records show: i was being sarcastic
You're more than welcome to put something under activities / interests such as: strong interest in markets & investing. If the interviewer's interested in talking about it, he'll probe deeper and you can open the flood gates to how you're the next Jim Cramer.
ibanking interview: just put that you are interested in the markets; not like it matters anyway, the only thing you need to be interested in to do banking is shutting your brain off for 2 years
PE interviews: also not very helpful here, but would put your interest down
hf interviews: if you have it as your interest and you put your return, then i would recommend also having back up for at least 1 or 2 of your investments (ie model and investment writeup); i still don't know if it's great to have the return on there (this is not to say it isn't; i just don't know myself), but if you do, and you have this back up, then you will look all the more impressive relatively speaking (this is more for l/s equity funds)
What if you managed 4-5 million of others money?
