Jefferies S&T Equities SA

What's the word on this group. I heard Jef has been stingy with giving full time offers in the past. I really like S&T but it sounds like this place doesn't give a good shot at a job after graduation.

In addition, culture? I don't mind about the hours or pay, but what's the vibe (besides the recent scandals)

Not exactly. My other offer is from a small but prestigious talent agency firm (worked there this fall and they offered me a full-time offer if I come back this summer). Pay's not as good but it is creative work and the hours are good.

So it's a bit of a predicament.

 

not to be cliche, but i would say do what you love however, even if you go to JEF and don't get the FT, you'll still be positioned alright for FT recruiting

ogofnycI met with an md from FI who then forwarded my resume to HR. I was then contacted about the first round interview by HR but they did not specify. All they said was that they would be contacting me in the mid of Jan. I am guessing it would be fixed income but am not familiar with the process. would you know?

You didn't reply to my comment so I didn't know you had responded.

Have they contacted you yet?

Because when you're in a room full of smart people, smart suddenly doesn't matter—interesting is what matters.
 

Depends what you want to do; if you want to do PWM, take MS... if you want to do S&T, take the Jefferies offer and maybe leverage that for FT recruiting if you want to join a BB.

 

If you can go BB then go BB. If not Jefferies is fine. Don't listen to college kids or 3/4 of the people on this board. A job there is better than nothing. Besides, who the hell makes employment decisions because of what a bunch of 20 year old's think.

 

Yes, Jefferies S&T > MS PWM if you want to do S&T imo.
