Wow....love the sweet education timeline projection and the "becoming the man I've always wanted to be: an Investment Banker"
If you take the resume alone, it actually doesn't look half bad. Too bad he resorted to this...
Some notes:
1) 21 and completing b-school?
2) stocklyzer doesn't work :(
3) The background picture of the "about me" section is hilarious. Beyond hilarious. It will now be my new morning "mirror look" before I head off to work. Probably the most perfect "Magnum" ever.
4) He equates man hood to being an investment banker
Stocklyzer (Stock + Analyzer as he points out in his CV for all those uninformed) is under construction but the blog is up and running.
His education seems fucked up, 1 year at like 4 differnet places, I dont get it.
He says he wants to be the next generation investment banker, but on his CV he mentions he wants to be on a derivatives trading desk??
I've seen pictures of his site a not long ago because someone got his business card but didn't want to identify the guy. Pretty funny.
I like the picture of him fixing his tie and looking away like he don't give a shit.
If you go to the About Me section, the second heading is impeccable organization, and there is a screenshot of his rigorous schedule... It includes "Buy a Monthly Bus Card - 8:00-10:00am Monday", "Bring the bicycle to the Store - 9:00-10:00am Tuesday"
You'd think he could have gotten a screenshot of a more interesting week in his life...
lol, I didn't even attempt to read his schedule. This was fucking hilarious.
A 2 hour block devoted to buying a bus card.
That was the most interesting week in his life.
He's trying to give the impression of an every day normal guy, which is obviously not the case because a normal guy doesn't usually have a fancy personal website.
2 hours to buy a monthly bus card shows transactional experience...maybe not efficiency though.
HAHAHAH I missed the specifics of his schedule, lol.
over/under on when it arrives on dealbreaker?
Coz nothing says scrappy more than fixing your tie on a rooftop.
The "about me" section is down now. Hahaha! Hey, there's a chance that he actually read this thread man...
not just down, he completely removed the button for it.
-_- good website though patrick you could learn something (lol jp
From "RELEVANT INFORMATION" section:
Driving License and own vehicle.
Occasional motivational speaker
haha
What a profile picture.
what's so bad about having a personal website? I mean, Joyce Meng has one, she even blogs about very personal information on it. i don't understand all the universities he's been to though.
Pathetic.
Guy is just barely 21 years old and he has done a ton of stuff. Like it or not, he is pretty qualified. Who knows, he may pass the airplane test, even if he comes off as a total tool from his efforts. I kinda like him.
The industry for his wealth management internship is Investment Banking.
HAHA what a joke. Where did you find this?
bandwith exceeded! ahha
bandwith exceeded.... if people like him are the norm in the banking world, Im hella glad I ended up where I did
...and i get home by 7:15
Looks like we overloaded the site cause I can't get on it anymore
Bandwidth Limit Exceeded The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later.
:(
haters gonna hate
i'm sure this guy will end up succesful
as for the uni's, i think he was an exchange student as an undergrad and has done two masters
This was posted a month ago because someone got his card at a networking event and it had his website:
http://img580.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=cardpc.jpg
In case anyone has problem reading it, I believe it says "Passionate personality, entrepreneurial spirit"
love how he included his "own vehicle" there....
Nothing says success like a shit-brown Porsche that you certainly don't own, lol.
Regards
Due to the bandwidth being exceeded, he probably thinks there is a mad rush of potential employers viewing his information.
Haha, that is exactly what I was thinking. He is probably getting excited because he thinks he should have offers rolling in left and right.
Sadly it's just WSO swinging by for a chuckle.
Regards
I think if his host is decent, he can see where the hits are coming from and it will pretty much be from here, DealBreaker, and some other site.
i think this kid is pretty sucessful for 21 would love to do what he did at that age i'm sure many here would as well
Yah... We all dreamed of spending 300 thousand dollars on two masters degrees, all while becoming the biggest laughing stock of multiple blogs/websites.
He may be a decent candidate based on his credentials, but I find it difficult to focus on his achievements when all I can think about is his stupid website, fb profile pic, and dramatic modeling pictures. I think he may be putting investment banking on a pedastool.
I just added him on fb and posted the link to this post on his wall. He deserves notification of his sudden fame.
300k for two masters degrees? don't forget it's Europe, not the US.
No question the guy is qualified and there is a good possibility I would hire him had he came through here and I not read that.
However the fact of the matter is I did read that and I am assured a lot of the street has also. The guy makes an ass out of himself through that website, networking would have done him a whole lot more good.
I am sure he is a nice guy but he is dinged from my shop and I would guess most others.
Additionally, I want to be an I-banker but all my focus is in trading and research??? Then it says he wants derivatives?? Does the guy know the difference btw banking, S&T, and research??? To people off the street it is okay to say I-banking but you do not tell MD of the int'l derivatives desk you want to be an "I-banker" when he is interviewing you.
Look, it doesn't matter what is qualifications are. The fact of the matter is he has put together a pompous site to showcase himself in a sad attempt to get a job. Hiring him, for any firm, would be a massive liability and cause your firm to be a laughing stock.
Think about it, GS hires this guy and other WS firms find out GS has this douche working at their firm as an analyst. Soon the e-mails start flying and in a matter of a day everyone is not only laughing at this kid, but GS as well for hiring him.
This guy is a fucking idiot.
I am simply amazed that someone would still do something like this. On what planet could he have thought that this was a good idea.
"But, but, he has masters degress!"
So do a lot of people without douchebag websites with dumb pictures of them adjusting their ties. GTFO
I love the quote "My CV is one of the best I have ever seen" and listing your IQ, wow.
I would definitely hire him right away for my equity research business that does not yet exist.
Give it a couple of days and everybody knows this guy.
How sad would it be if he never got call backs after first rounds because of this site lol
How sad? You know that this is indeed happening. Bankers all over the world are laughing at this kid. His has indirectly exploited himself on the 3 most viewed wall street websites. I am starting to feel bad for this kid as I think he quite possibly ruined any chance of working in IB, let alone preserving it... Actually, I feel worse for the company that hires him (doubtful).
Why people do this stuff is beyond me. The guy is stupid. Hope he takes this site down before everyone on the street sees it.
My thoughts exactly, too late though he's on dealbreaker now. lol
Feel a bit sorry for this guy. He's only 21, I was a douchebag at 21 and hadn't done half the stuff this guy has. Hope he can pull himself out of this. But agreed, perhaps he shouldve gone for a more subtle approach to his personal site.
Its likely most of spain hasnt seen all this, so at least he can still have a chance in his home country, even if it is 20% unemployment there.
He took it down before i could see it disappointed
Check out his website again. He completely changed everything, even changed his infamous IB manhood quote. Good thing he took our advice, hope it is not too late.
Damn, he deleted his facebook too haha. This kid has to be shitting his pants right now.
