I (Intern) Hates Taste of Beer. How do I get the Offer?
I hate beer. It's bitter and burns my throat. Heard from a couple of people that interns will go to bars with analysts/associates and make everyone drink 3-5 bottles. Interns who refuse to drink, only drink 1-2 bottles, or get wasted, are looked down upon and don't get an offer. That's kinda messed up honestly, but I will drink and suck it up if it means I will get an offer. But at the same time, I'm wondering how you were able to avoid such situations and still get an offer. Thoughts?
Bro where did you hear this? You going to Houston or something?
If serious just get a vodka redbull/coke or something.
I attended a post super day dinner for a Houston BB where we were all offered wine. Ended up getting the offer but so did the trust fund douche who sat next to me, and he blacked out. Needless to say, I’m definitely excited to see the levels of degeneracy this summer entails.
hahah who tf would blackout at a superday dinner. I grew up in Houston and a part of me still wishes I SAd there just for the shenanigans, but you'll def have a good time.
Vodka/Red Bull is disgusting. Better for your stomach to go with double Tito's/Grey Goose and soda
Where are you interning, Wolf of Wall Street?
This is not true and you can happily get mixed drinks or water or soda if you want. Yeah there is some happy hour schmoozing but they are not hazing fraternity style... come on now. Don't forget many interns aren't even 21, and while they use fake IDs with their friends they usually don't with FTs from work
I think the closest you will come to this situation is if your intern class decides to go to a brewery for fun on a weekend.
How are some people on this site even alive rn
That's kinda how service industries work
If a client serves up a pile of shit you better eat that shit up or else they'll take the $10mm fee they would've paid your team and give it to your rivals
Some people don't drink for religious reasons or dietary reasons.
Drink more.
But I didn’t drink during my internship and still got the return bc I was under 21
Just drink cider lmao it’s not deep
drink for the offer, then decide on how to move forward once job locked down
I’ve had no issue just ordering soda water
Beer's a bit like sex. It kinda sucks the first few times, but you end up enjoying it a lot.
also on a more serious note. I don't think they care whether you drink or not. It's more about being interesting and making sure you're not a complete workaholic. The best way to ensure this is by telling NSFW stories from University. Nothing too racy/cancelable but just edgy & genuine enough to keep them interested. Most of these guys would die to be back in university and have some real fun.
