I'm currently Orangutan rank and I'm really proud of the strides I've made here, sharing advice and insights from my two and a half years of college.
I think this definitely sets me apart from other applicants as it shows I know how to work in a community and give back knowledge.

oh my god…
Putting Orangutan on your resume is like putting your GPA on your resume when it's below a 3.0. Leave it off until you're at least King Kong
Thank you for your advice, Senior Neanderthal.
What WSO rank do you think I should target for BB recruiting?
King Kong will look good but I've seen some Gorillas pull it off, but by the time you reach Human you should have already moved to the buy side
This thread has lots of potential just don’t overdo it
.
Lolll u not kidding? Ken moelis reads WSO?
That’s what he said
To be fair, would imagine if you have > 500 bananas beside your side it’ll be good to put the number in your CV, as it shows that you have contributed & people appreciated it.
Source: For context, I’ve put WSO on my CV with 20 bananas and was asked during interview at a BB why it wasn’t > 500 and the director interviewing me whipped out his phone showed me his account with > 10k bananas.
Hope this helps.
I'm like top 200 on banana points. That means I am literally one of the top 200 individuals in the entire fucking finance world on planet Goddamn Earth. You bet your ass I'm putting that on my resume. In fact, I don't even need to put my school (Harvard/Wharton/Princeton/UVA) or my GPA (4.01/4.0). I just put my wso rank. I thought about leaving off my finance internships too but decided to keep them so they know I'm actually IB and not some PWM pleb.

Ok intern
You literally made a post asking about the most prestigious way to abbreviate “million”
UVA sophomore spotted
definitely
carry it with pride
Whatever type of primate you are, just round it up to Almost Human
You would be absolutely bananas if you went ahead with it. Do it.
TBH if someone listed having >1k silver bananas in their intersts in an experienced hire/lateral interview, I would for sure ask them what their ratio was and have some friendly banter there
Don't even THINK about putting WSO on your profile if you're not ATLEAST King Kong PLUS have the official WSO Silver Banana Sculpture TM at home. Kids these days smh...
