+29 Heard good things about Apollo Associate 1 in IB - Gen
+29 Amazing journey, and I have no doubt that the number of unexpected hurdles you overcame along the way only increased the gratification of landing that first IBD role tenfold.  Deal Team Six
+29 1) You piss people off in some way, usually an attitude issue, breaking social corporate norms or horrible work product (like not even knowing excel but that can be salvaged with a good attitude and politics). Analyst 2 in IB - CB

+17 From someone in MF PE right now… Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
+17 Going to push back a bit on the idea that HBS wanting a diversity of roles / geographies is somehow not "meritocratic." If I wanted to hang out with people at top buyside shops in New York...I would text my Penn buddies! Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
