What are the demographics of WSO?
Lately I have seen posts of people asking very 'Reddit-ish' questions which makes me think that people here are mostly socially awkward, how true is this?

Career Resources
Yes, I have noticed as well.
But again, this is another online message board, filled with finance nerds who think they're Chad's. What do you expect? I feel like there are only a handful of people on here that I would want to meet in person.
Shut up nerd
Under 18: 85%; 18-25: 13%; 26+: 2%
Non-target freshmen probably make up the majority
1% Crab Chiggins 99% Retards
I got 99 problems but Crab Chiggins ain't one.
Indeed, young nub.
Howls
Richard and his children: 98.5% Incels: 1% Genuinely curious students: 0.5%
:(
On the bright side, he is saying you're not an incel...
49% clueless 18 year olds interested in finance.
49% arrogant 18 year olds who think they're hot shit and so smart.
2% finance professionals with Internet addictions.
Self-acceptance is the first step to treat addictions.
60% patriots, 40% traitors
how does it feel? to constantly feel like you are being oppressed, you have to voice it on an online message board full of naive college students? I wonder how it feels to live such a life.
He's a patriot, dammit!
...just not an American patriot...since he isn't American...and doesn't live in America...
So, you two felt called out enough to reply but not brave enough to show your nickname?
Kinda proves my point, doesn't it?
BIG difference btw patriotism and jingoism.
I agree.
Then again, never supported invading other people's communities to force my creed. That tends to go in line with those claiming to support universal values for the good of mankind.
Most people on here are incoming IBD rejects.
Brutal.
How do people make it into finance while being socially awkward, wouldn't people like this be weeded out in interviews? Genuinely curious
From my understanding, they often are. But the better school they go to, better grades they have, better internships, better technical knowledge, etc, the more awkwardness they can get away with. It’s a big factor, but it can be offset by being super qualified. Plenty of finance guys from targets are huge nerds. I’ve noticed that non targets tend to almost all be charismatic, probably because the nerdy non targets never got offers.
13% Richard
76% people with the EQ of a toad who seriously watch Youtube videos on how to be more suave
11% Northwestern Mutual interns claiming they are analysts at a BB but spam people for hirevue questions and application links on recruiting threads
This is the absolute worst
"I go to a target but I can't seem to find the link, can someone PM me the link to this target-only hirevue?"
half man half bear half pig
I fall into the 2% who can't seem to break the WSO habit
98% Kelley Boners
Every week there's at least one new post comparing Kelley to some random ass Semi-target/Target school that blows Kelley out of the water in terms of placement but the comments are still full of Kelley boners saying "go to Kelley no question"
Haha, all my homies hate Kelley boners. They shouldn't be allowed to leave SPEA library
You are in a forum for people who consider their career to be a significant % of their personality, including you and me. What did you expect?
It’s mostly North America and India if I remember correctly from Alexa.
Of course people here are socially awkward. Almost everyone I've met in this industry has been a fucking weirdo.
