No cover letter needed for GS application?
Hi, I just submitted an application on GS career portal. Strangely enough, I only had to upload my CV. After two pages of further personal information (no questions, merely background info), the application process was done. Did I miss something or did GS make their application process more minimal?

Why is David Solomon such an asshole?
He let go of all of Lloyd Blankfein’s leadership team. Put in his own leadership team, and half those guys all left him. Then this cheap fuck has done nothing to compensate all those GS analysts even after they exposed the hours of his company and the current banking industry. What kind of...
