How much GPA matters after graduating?
Incoming FT at BB, with a pretty low GPA (in the B-/B range). After signing my IB internship in 2nd year I kinda took my foot of the gas, in addition had a lot of personal/family matters to deal with, which brought my gpa down.
I'm not interested in on-cycle pe, want to ideally work in IB until associate, but unsure of which path is right for me after.
How much will this gpa impact my career options? I'm okay with going to a T2 MBA, but do the jobs in finance outside of the on-cycle / early career positions really care about transcripts? If I explain the family matters going on will that suffice?
Hasn't mattered for me other than first job. My undergrad gpa wasn't great either.
Some of the funds will list "valedictorian..." in team bios, but it seems like a light bonus at best.
How did you handle it when/if asked for your transcript during interviews?
First job asked for and provided. After that, I've done interviews where gpa/transcript was asked about on the application, but they never followed through with asking for it during bg check.
