hi,
many bbs have gay 'recruiting' events...does this up one's chances and are there any benefits to it or is it better to stick to the regular track?
also how can they tell you're gay
thanks

Oh wow, this is going to be an interesting thread.
It helps in recruiting tremendously because it shows MDs you are already willing and capable of taking it up the ass regularly.
lol i wonder how gay those events are, both literally and figuratively.
This is going to go downhill fast
hilarious fucking comment.
isn't gay like being black, aa helps them alot
All jokes aside, many banks have targeted diversity events. It does help to a certain extent.
I can throw on a lisp and some tighter khakis for the right job....
HAHAHAHAHA
is it like affirmative action?
More like affirmative back door action.
i was rlly thinkin of doing this
great troll thread. good laugh!
my first thought upon seeing thread
ANTHONY IS IN DA HOUSE!
my first thought upon opening thread
ANTHOOOONY??!?!?! Oh...there you are!
Which of course leads to the following question, "How many of you guys would go gay to get into banking? Would you suck dick to get into a BB?"
If you did the above you would be in fact gay, not "go gay".
It is all about the reach around
I know that these diversity-increasing traits (i.e. black, gay, disabled, etc.) help in getting a first round interview, but do they help at all past that?
some one answer
One of my friends dropped his resume for a JPM event. He got an email saying "We would love to invite you to JP Morgan's GLBT event in New York on (date)."
He had no clue that was what the event was for, sent another email back saying there was some huge mix up and that he is very interested in JP Morgan but is not gay. Hopefully it doesn't screw him over when SA recruiting rolls around.
I had an interviewer who was gay. I was about to start cracking up every time he spoke. Toughest interview by far.
I wonder what the number of gays in retail groups at banks is. Of course I am stereotyping, but it would make a lot of sense if they are really into the brands, stores etc. It would seem like a good fit.
Hmmmm, all of you seem to be into brands, stores, etc...... just check the fashion forum.
On another note, by the year 2012, 11 out of every 10 men will be gay.
How interviewers gonna tell your gay? Increase lisp wear pink?
This is absurd, lol.
You should just show up regardless and if they ask if you are gay, tell them no, when they kick you out and/or don't hire you, sue them for discrimination. Then turn gay just to make it burn even more.
Regards
