+1 Sending out American jobs to Pune and Hyderabad is evil  Associate 1 in IB - Cov
+1 I'm pretty sure like 50% of the Bowdoin population are athletes, and the fact that athletes make up a large part of the student body holds true at any of the top LACs, so that's probably why it seems that way. welcomehome
+1 agree. Its advice only another Analyst can appreciate splitaces
+1 I actually just got an email from recruiting, inviting me to the in person GCB Insight & Networking Session, giving me options for 6 different locations. frikzy

+1 I’m 24 — graduated 2024 and started my current role almost immediately, so I’m about a year and a half into my first full-time role. That’s why I’m thinking MBA is still a few years out for me. sie beast
+1 been tracking these platforms for a while. The biggest differentiator that most advisors miss is the Practitioner Model vs the SaaS/Institutional Model. jasper.thorne1
+1 They only have “value” with the travel agents which is increasingly being eaten up by AI. Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+1 Would much rather manage the wealth of Josh Harris, which is around $10bn that be at a MF. Seems like a lot of room for growth if it's just managing his and the wealth of his friends. Analyst 2 in IB - Gen

+1 they just said hire vue is having technical difficulties rn mmm720
+1 It depends on the state of the market. There was a time where you could wet your finger and feel the wind to know if a deal would work. Hell, there was a time that you didn’t even need to do that.  IsItREPE
+1 Prospect in IB - GenJudge the idea, not the title. MF PE analyst anyway.  PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀

+1 you need to take a long look in the mirror if that's what you think legends are made of iMamba
+1 Because for obvious reasons the US is the ring leader of the global order and the IRGC allied themselves with China and Russia temporarily until they are strong enough to attack them too. Matchabee
+1 It’s trading below par because somebody thinks somebody else will sell it at 88. People sell for all sorts of reasons, and sometimes there is no bid. Research Associate in AM - FI
+1 see above. varies by firm. some do fit, brainteasers/mini cases, diagnostic exams, pitch ideas. this ain't rocket science. it's applied corporate finance with a tilt toward corporate actions / process components iMamba

+1 Lot of superdays for SF all last week joeschmoe340
+1 Rotterdam and rsm aren't cheap if that's really your argument lol.  You can basically do your bachelors for free in the EU or a few hundred euros. Check SSE, CBS, mannheim etc. Qwentin8

+1 Dude just go home the same time as they do.  tellmehowtoplay
+1 In a very similar position myself, STEM degree>IB>PE, now Senior Associate. Energy trading career path only really came on my radar recently. Lonfinance
+1 Front office (IB, S&T) recruiting is brutal and happens earlier and earlier each year (and recruiting is concentrated to a small subset of schools). PEPrincess

+1 I think back to what was said in the beginning of the job, if those things held in place or not. If they didn't follow through, was it the fault of the company/team or was it out of their control? Associate 3 in RE - Comm
