lying about graduation to get an internship
Hi, a lot of you may think I'm an idiot just for asking this, but I think it may be a good idea.
I have not being able to get an IB SA internship. This is my last summer, and I was thinking about saying I was gonna delay my graduation by one semester in order to secure an internship in a Big 4 acct firm.
The only want students with at least 2 summers left. The internship is a split between auditing dept and advisory.
I think doing this is better than doing an internship at Merrill Lynch (pwm).
My intention is not to get a FT position but to get a Decent internship thus last summer.
What do you think?
Well if they find out, you'll be blacklisted. It really comes down to whether you think it's worth the risk.
Best of luck
I guess my question would, how could they really find out? Technically, I think I can still delay my graduation.
For example if I like the internship, I could in fact delay by one semester. If not, couldn't you also changed your mind and took 20 units your last 2 semesters
I'm voting for this guy getting blacklisted for lying about something obvious.
Plus why the hell say you're deferring a year? Even if you got the internship, you wouldn't get the FT offer.
Ok, I don't think you fully understand what I was saying.
I'm gonna try to break it down barney style for you. Hopefully, you pay attention this time:
1) Take the internship (summer 2015), indicating I will be graduating dec 2016 instead of may 2016 in order to get obtain a minor in statistics.
2)Apply to IB FT positions during Fall 2015.
3) If I'm unable to get anything in IB during Fall 2015, I would in fact delay my graduation to Dec 2016 instead of May 2016.
4)Problem solved
Get it now?
I read this and thought to myself: This kid will have a hard time being successful. You should work on yourself.
If that's the case, then you aren't really lying are you? So what's the question then?
Guess you are right. I wouldn't be lying.
No really a question, just asking for opinions.
Thanks!
I can't believe you are asking this question. This is beyond idiotic. You want to apply for an ADVISORY and AUDIT and yet you think it's OK for you to lie?
Your ethical compass is more than just a few degrees off; you need a new one.
You know what, you are right. After reading your post, I have decided not to pursue this opportunity. I have realized lying does not get you anywhere.
I quick ethics lesson is exactly what I needed. Please disregard this discussion.
You're such a shitwaffle.
a little sarcasm, anyone??
lol you aren't being sarcastic at all, you're just being retarded

Had a good laugh.
