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.

 
ogofnyc:
I 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.
