Does being Jewish help?
If I'm Jewish does this help with IBD networking? (given the high number of Jewish people on Wall Street)
I always hear about URMs getting help with recruiting, but is there any sort of networking advantage for Jews?

Yes
I would say generally yes ... there are some really jewy firms out there
Yes, I have noticed this helping people quite often.
helps in more ways than just networking
Doubt it, there are already a ton of Jewish kids applying for these jobs. You won't stand out with that factor alone.
It definitely helps.
If I didn't meet you at The Torah and Haftarah readings, I could care less.
I have a buddy who converted to Judaism just for the network. No joke.
1: I would totally convert to Judaism for Natalie Portman.
2: I already did. But that was just to get promoted.
GSElevator Enough said
Can't hurt. Give it a go.
So would a Jewish URM waltz right into Goldman IBD?
Banking is far less Jewish than it used to be. No one cares about your background. All they care about is do they like you, do they trust you, and can you produce.
I know I got in GS IBD TMT simply from being Jewish with help from my main Jewbro BlackHat
I was convinced BlackHat was Indian.
GS TMT to corporate finance... that's rough.
