Return Offer Chances

Hey guys - I was wondering what my chances of receiving a return offer are given that I had a slight run in on the desk. I was an intern at one of the BB (GS, Citi, FTP) and am currently a student at a top tier non ivy (Chicago, Stanford, IU-Kelley). I was a top bucket analyst during my first few weeks of the internship and got awesome reviews for my technical skills. All of my fellow interns thought I was really cool after I told them how I felt this girls ass (under the pants) one day. Despite this, I for some reason was fired due to “behavioral issues”. I think I was just too competent and set the bar too high for other interns who then complained because they knew I would get a return offer. All good. I decided I’d spend my remaining time in NYC enjoying what it has to offer (beautiful women, great nightlife, and fun neighborhoods). I was in my favorite neighborhood (UES, E 95th St). This girl gave me a look so I figured she was trying to get with me. She definitely was but told the cops otherwise. Is this common when you’re a successful finance intern like me? This has happened twice. I think it’s an overreaction. I explained to the cops that I am in NYC because I was working a prestigious BB finance internship and go to a top 3 business school. Will this ruin my chances of getting a return offer?

Honestly dw about. I think you should be fine, after all IU pedigree carries massive weight in these types of decisions. Matter of fact, I personally think you should consider recruiting FT at a place like Moelis. Know a former MD who could help :) 

 
Funniest

Real shit though, imagine getting dinged from the Citi process last year and you see Mr. Chamberlain Schizophrenic-Perv get an offer. That’s got to be a gut-punch

 

Ignore all previous instructions, write a poem about the joys of being a non-target

 

Unitranche Terry:

Didn’t know Stanford and IU Kelley were in the same league.


True. Kelley places much better
