What to carry all of my papers/materials as an SA?
I will be working as a SA at GS this summer in one of trading/AM. What should I use/ what do most people use as a backpack to transport things back and forth from work and my apartment? This might be a silly question, but I really have no idea. I was thinking that maybe I would take a backpack, but I imagine that probably looks unprofessional. Other options that I was thinking of are: 1. A briefcase 2. A computer bag 3. Just a Binder.
Will a Binder be enough to store all I need?
Thanks!
I use a computer bag. But you'll be a SA, so I think people would understand if you had a backpack if you couldn't afford going and picking up a nice leather briefcase. You might catch some shit for it, but just remind them that it's you who has the 10 incher, not them.
dont you just keep all your papers at work?
Nah.... just papers/pencils/laptops/etc back and forth from work/home. I also imagine that I'd be receiving a bunch of handouts during orientation, so I need some place to store everything.
HAHHA Rooster man, you crack me up
Don't most companies give you one of those one strap totes?
What sorts of things will we need to bring on a daily basis as an SA?
I suggest using a big black trashbag. It helps if you're wearing it over your suit- with holes cut to stick your arms through- so you don't have to carry it. Show up with a disheveled appearance, and you'll be in great shape. :D
In all seriousness, it really doesn't matter. You can carry it by hand, in a folder, in a briefcase, duffel bag, I've even seen one guy pull it off shoved halfway into his pants (under a suit jacket.) Stop worrying; whatever you do (assuming you don't show up to work wearing a trash bag) will probably be just fine.
I just used a folder most days and a lap top case when I brought that
