I'm Willing To Answer Your Questions

Hi,

My Name is David, and I worked at JP Morgan in London. I'm here to help you on any advice regarding your ambitions to enter the banking field. I can tell you what to include on your resume in order to get through the door; additionaly, I can tell you what not to write. I attended LSE and graduated with a mark equivalent to a 3.8 GPA. PM me if there is something you'd rather talk about in a non-public domain.

If you want me to look at your resumes and/or cover letters, just send me a pm. But you must remove any personal details on the list, for example, address and/or name. In addition, I would be quite reluctant to trust the truth-values of some of the things written on this site, as many members do not seem well-informed on the field that they are commenting on.

 

Can you elaborate more on the work/life imbalance? I will be starting FT next spring in S&T and after interning this summer I felt the balance was OK (much better than banking). In addition is OK to ask what desk you were on?
