Toolish vs. Down-to-Earth
Which personality does better in IB: (1) the tool who sucks up to his seniors, or (2) down-to-earth, genuine analyst
The second personality type seems more trustworthy, which in my opinion is important in an IB office environment. The first one, however, is more PC and is less likely to step on other peoples' toes.
What you guys think / know from experience.
A mixture of both pending on the situation. There's a time and place for everything, sometimes you just have to suck up your pride and take a beating and smile afterwards. (feel free to plot the other person's demise in your mind though).
Rex nailed it
...why does it have to be those extremes. There is probably a happy medium somewhere which you can please most people with
Good point - most people are somewhere in between i suppose.To change the question, then:
New Question: How toolish should one be?
Illum omnis enim officiis esse. Incidunt qui pariatur ut rerum.
Non error id ex dolores. Occaecati nihil in qui sequi et id.
Veritatis sit illo exercitationem ab ducimus. Voluptatem voluptas est voluptatem possimus.
