Hi, what does a second interview mean? If with a shit private equity firm? Trouble is, he told me today morning to meet him in a few hours later today.
I have no experience at all in finance and never took a single finance course.
Thank you so much

Second interview means that you are one step closer to working for a shit PE firm. Quite honestly, if you're in over your head, you should just save the firm some time and let them know that you're not interested or that you feel it won't be a good fit. If you never took a single finance course, this interview could be a shit show and a learning experience.
Damn
Your success will depend on how well you're able to demonstrate you want to work for their shitty firm. Knowing that most successful people steer clear of them like the plague, you'll want to convey that you are also shit, with little to no skills (hard or soft) that you can apply from day 1. Also, most people who work at shitty firms have a chip on their shoulder/are insecure, so you'll want to convey that you are incompetent to the point that they never have to fear that you'll push them out of their jobs that they're trying to desperately hold onto knowing they're being substantially overpaid for the value they're adding.
With that in mind, I think you're well on your way to a shitty position.
Stay jobless homie
I got the job. I spoke with the CEO and he told me, "I'll give you an offer." He then told the COO, who was also at the interview, "give this guy a job."
Trouble is, I don't know what job. I don't know the salary as well. But I least I broke into Private Equity.
I can describe the interview in greater detail if anyone is interested.
This is the worst troll attempt I've ever seen on this board. Could you try any harder?
I'm getting paid 45K, so I guess its like a secretary position. So its not so big.
But if you don't believe me I don't care fuck off.

This guy actually isn't horrible at trolling. There is nothing wrong with pissing off the try-hards on occasion, at least when they start getting snobby or their OCD starts to drive everyone else nuts.
If you walk into interviews judging other candidates' resumes but haven't actually gotten a job offer yet... you might be trying too hard.
If you have memorized every single interview question in the interview books and look down on those who haven't... you might be trying to hard.
If you take it seriously and literally when you hear that someone lost an offer because someone didn't like their tie and you clear out half your wardrobe as a result... you might be trying too hard.
If Jobless Joe is driving you nuts... you might be trying too hard.
It's good to want something; just don't become obsessed. Try to be nice and try not to look down on other people. Because oftentimes getting a job is more about luck than skill. At least early in your career.
Be nice. And if you're a kook (this goes for both the overly frugal or the trying-too-hard), don't take yourself too too seriously. Because you might just get eaten alive by trolls like this guy otherwise.
Back to my clunky ford fusion (used).
I'm not driving anyone mad. Now if some of you fuckers want advice--I can give advice. A few users have PM'ed me and I've explained to those how I did it. I'm no troll.
Gl and when do you start?
...
lol
Congrats on the secretary position. I'm going to show this to Sharon to show her she's massively overpaid.
You are a very generous massah.
DickFuld What a shit and mean thing to say. Fuck off instead of saying something mean. Just because you bankrupted Lehman you think you are better than everyone and you put me down.
Now the COO told me that if I perform well I will get promoted to a business analyst position. I will say this: I got a 99 percentile on the MCAT. This means that I am most likely in the top 0.001 percent of the US population. Maybe smarter than you.
I wrote a excellent cover letter, interviewed excellent and demonstrated solid intellect. Hence I got the position over others.
wish u all the best dont forget to change your industry to PE :)
Bask in the glory of my praise for a few moments before you go back to living your little, petty life. Congrats in advance on the future promotion to yet another slightly better back office position offered to you by the COO of a 'shit firm'.

Lmao, "Just because you bankrupted Lehman you think you are better than everyone and you put me down."
I know JoblessJoe is just trolling (pretty well I might add, I'm laughing). But reminds me of how every once in a while I sit back and chuckle that some kids on this forum really think the former CEO of Lehman gets home from the office at night and hops on WSO to crush martinis and bicker with college kids.
