Did not get into ideal team for Summer
Did not get into ideal desk for Summer internship in London in a MM. find that all the structuring desk prefer innocent Math/Physcis/Aerospace engineering undergrad that dont even know what is repo ( real personal experience).. dont like Msc finance student even with previous experience. a bit sad now but I wonder how to show that I know the stuff and willing to learn despite the product is simple ( so i should learn more about the procedure, market dynamic...? Generally really wish to get a return but don't know how to spark in a more vanilla team. Thanks!
Jesus your attitude
It’s always these people who keep this attitude the whole summer and then wonder why they didn’t get the return
Those engineers will run circles around you.
"really wish to get a return but don't know how" maybe don't shit on the people who you will be working with before you even start. Anything bachelor STEM trumps Msc Finance for structuring...
What is s&t’s MM?BNP etc?
yes
For people who throw shade on me. i got math for undergrad and i dont feel it help at all after a year of work so i decide to do master.
and i even learnt french after a year at a french bank's derivative desk. honestly at my work as trader i never really need to code anything thats relevant to pricing. more like work flow stuff. i feel bad as i have work experience and more effort in building my financial common sense but on the same start line again with those ppl . (like me 2 yr ago )... whats the point
You live a sad life
Why
Where did u do your masters?
And if u did deris in a bank already, why not keep on it?
i am doing it now at HEC. Because my boyfriend relocated from HK back to Paris so i have to move with him but my undergrad is in HK so ppl here dont really know about the universities there. Also I want to change for FX because its a larger market here. I know it doesnt really justify for going back to do a master but i want to give myself sometime to adopt to the culture and life here in general.
Well i thought HK unis are pretty known in London
You feel your hard work gone too waste. You show your anger by mocking other majors. It’s a sad existence for you.
Write an email to the CEO and demand he place you into your preferred team that rejected you in the first place
No easier way to not get a return offer than to be the intern who is resentful of the other people because they think they are better than them. Gives off a bad vibe and will make you look weird if people catch onto it.
then try securing a spot at the 'vanilla' desk first?
