I do the interviews/hiring for the ~800 Million USD investment firm I work at. My proper title is Senior Trashman.
Ask me why millennial are lazy retards who get their resumes thrown in the trash.

dude, OP is confirmed underage b&. He can't name the firm he works at without 5 minutes of googling, let alone answer questions about the firm
>>44207308
so how do you pick who you DO want to work for you?
How important are social skills in general?
Say I'm good with numbers: can I work for you alone in some basement or whatever and make good money anyway or do I have to talk to non-autistic people all the time anyway?
OP is a liar. All applications came from one fucking school. The guy is likely someone who helped write those resumes. Stop falling for bait.
>>44208119
I've had to do some pre-screening for a new member of our team.

To the risk management department and operations you go.
>>44208174
That guy here. I used to work for a firm doing private banking and investing. We had a Bloomberg terminal. I have my own business now. I mean look at OPs pleb Aldo shoes ffs. Probably wears a timex as well.
Fucking plebs.
>>44208186
I work in the area although I am not a trader but work amongst them. I will be blatantly honest from what I observed. Wall Street is all about nepotism. Every young guy is an Ivy Leaguer who is a friend or a son of someone high up. Connections are the most important thing in this industry from what I observed.
>>44208186
Not him but I need someone soon for inventory and accounting, shit like that. I'd hire whether you were autist or not, just as long as you do a good job
>>44208255
Aldo shoes are cheap as shit for when you're starting off. My first internship I got $50 aldo dress shoes.

>>44207308
So OP, what sort of firm are you?
PE, IB? or some boutique wealth/portfolio management office.
>>44207836
I suppose I can't really prove assets under management and all without leading to too many clues about which firm I work for, and I'd rather keep my job. If you knew anything about deal sourcing and the process of of lower/middle market private equity investment you'd know yelling hurr bloomberg terminal is a retarded thing to say.
I get bothered by retarded students like you all day while I try to work on financial models. They feel entitled to call my direct line and ask to speak with me during work hours.
>>44208030
I'm 24. I'm also borderline retarded, but I'm far enough across the border that I can function, whereas most people my age and younger cannot.

I wear $30 shoes as my daily drivers, comfy as fuck and I don't have to worry about getting them ruined in the rain. Salvatore Ferragamos for formal situations. The guys that dress designer every day are usually retards that just have a job and office so their family will invest in new funds the company is starting. There are two of them in my team and they just sit in the office talking to people on the phone and networking all day.
>>44208254
I'm hoping for something better like maybe cutting-edge econometrics and statistical modelling in general.

I'm curious about how is the sector in Europe. When talking about this stuff Wall Street is pretty much always the first thought.
>>44207308
Why does pegging feel so good?
>>44208491
Lmao these people don't get it.
A PE firm doesn't really care about your stupid paper you retard. If you want to go write papers go to academia where the university gives you money to publish that drivel.
Unless this is some ground breaking method for valuating something (BSM). This guy sending the email isn't direct enough.
>>44208514
Just curious did you do your school in LUISS, Tor Vergata or La Sapienza, or did you do it at Bocconni in Milano?
>>44208491
>Mexique
This is no where near Wall Street when I google this place.
>>44208491
how big of a faggot do you have to be to start a thread like this?
Lets be honest here. You're some undergrad fag that failed out of engineering major and went into econ. Now you've failed out of that after getting your results back from your finals this semester and you're butthurt about all your much smarter friends landing jobs and internships this fall while you pick a liberal arts major.
>>44207764
>They lie about fucking everything. Every qualification is a lie or exaggerated.
Yeah, but how the fuck would you even know? How can you tell the difference? Exactly, you can't, not without spending a ton of money to run background checks, and that shit burns into the bottom line, so guaranteed you only do that on people that the darts you throw at resumes on a wall that actually hit. That's why you're grossly overpaid to throw shit into the trash.
Hey, OP, while you're at work tomorrow let your boss know I'll do your job for half the salary. I'm willing to move by the end of next week, plenty of time for you to pack your shit.
>>44207308
I'm considering going to mechanical engineering, then going into banking. Is this a good strategy. Would you trash my resume at your bank just because I graduate as an engineer?
>>44208514
>I'm curious about how is the sector in Europe.
Again non trader but I observe traders, London is the big Euro hub. We have a small skeleton crew in Paris but I interacted with them once in 5 years. It's all about the UK.
>>44208491
Is an MSBA in Finance from a state school good at all in smaller financial cities like Dallas?
To avoid hiring unlucky people in your firm, you should throw half of the résumés in the trash without looking at them.
>>44208491
On a scale of retarded to competent how good is HR?
Do you fear that HR is unable to tell fact from fiction and it results in qualified applicants never making it to your desk?
what's the best way to get an internship at your firm?
>>44208729
>Hey, OP, while you're at work tomorrow
No one works tomorrow the market is closed. If you are a moderately good trader you come when the market opens and leave by like 3 maybe 4 tops and never work the weekend. Some guy I know who is our top guy just hires underlings to do shit for him.
>>44208684
You sure talk like a badass for being an employee.

Nah m8, I'm coming from a mathematical engineering background at a Polytechnic. My curriculum right now is mostly about pure maths + lots of prob/stats + good amount of coding/numerical methods.
I'm gonna have to specialize soon and there's a good path towards applications in "financial engineering" as they call it.
tell me shit that will get you killed
>>44208819
Must be from a top tier school minimum.
If you know someone you are in. If you don't, find someone to make friends with. I work with people who got the job through nepotism and they are terrible and massive slackers but I can't do shit because their dad usually knows the CEO or some shit.
why do all the resumes look identical?
>>44207308
I'm trying to break into the finance/investment industry. I have a Masters in the thing, but what are people like you actually looking for?

This dude's probably just above intern level, he probably gets asked to work Saturdays all the time. I bet his boss is the guy from Office Space. He just kinda comes over, coffee in hand, and says 'Hey, if you could work Saturday that would be grrreeeaaattt..' then walks off. Then OP sits there like the beta he is and fiddles with his fingers and silently curses the establishment.
I mean, I can glean all this shit simply from the fact that he's here, on 4chan, at /pol/ of all fucking places, posting what amounts to him gloating about his dead end office job throwing rejected resumes into the trash.

For quant roles the strong quantitative background engineering brings is good.
This is how firms hire people.
1) Connections ... Close family, friends, people close to firm, clients
2) Come from good school, excellent GPA, good background
2) That one really talented guy that excels in one area and is extremely passionate for the role
3) The rest.

I get compensated for it though. You sound like a bitter man.

Because when I ask them about their experience in financial modeling, for instance a valuation model, they don't know the core principles. Case in point, I hired one asshole that said he could handle a discounted cash flow, but could not calculate the weighted average cost of capital for discounting. They lie and they get fired.
>>44208742
Your resume will be fine. So long as it isn't clearly exaggerated bullshit, which is what 90% are, it gets honest consideration. One of the girls I hired was a studio art major, but was honest and good with excel.
>>44208782
See the above answer. Given how many resumes I have to throw away, unless you're going head to head with a comparable ivy league candidate your odds are just fine. I dropped out of an ivy league and finished at a really shitty borderline community college state school.

>Is muh 300k starting just a meme or is it a possibility?
It is, but it's doubtful you'll get it after that many years in academia. You'll need to have compelling work does that interests someone else you'll be viewed as a post-secondary welfare queen who isn't interested in being productive.
Time to get out of the classroom and find productive work, Sport.
>>44209177
Then your post was confusing because you quoted me and started it with "This dude" as if you were referencing me.
>>44209013
Lmao congrats on all the degrees. But you've wasted your life getting these if you have no relevant work experience. People with MBA/CFA are 5 years ahead of you and are out earning you.
Salaries aren't just given based on qualifications. Academic ones at that. What happens is the employer looks at the possible pay he would have to give a PhD vs. your potential benefit .
Going past a masters or even undergrad without any work experience/internships is a one way ticket to academia land.

There's nothing wrong with that.
What I learned from my first internship at a boutique IB back in 09. Relationships are 80-90% of the business. Anyone can do the valuation technicals. Its all based on assumptions anyway. If people like you, they'll give you their business. The MD I worked under got business from which he made $500k from himself because a friend liked him more than the RBC guy.

Depends on employer. If you have an autistic employer who is so socially inept that he basically opens a pdf with your resume on it each time before he interacts with you, then lying on a resume or in an interview is going to get you in serious trouble.

my advice, delay graduation. Every time you apply to a job, 5-10 other people with the same degree (or better) will be applying except they have experience.

I'm a soon-to-be finance graduate currently interning in the muni credit department of a local firm, we have ~5b+ under management.
Once I graduate, I'm not really sure where to go. I'm hoping that I'll get a position at my current firm, but that is obviously not guaranteed.

I have interviewed for java and c# positions. The big 3 languages seem to be c#,c++ and java not in any particular order. You can't go wrong knowing any of them.
As for questions first round is usually phone HR screener. Next is a technical screener where they ask you rapid fire questions about the language you are interviewing for. So say it's java. Why do we use java. What's garbage collecting. Tell us about OOP. What is inheritance. What is polymorphism. Many times they also ask SQL/Oracle questions since that is big so you'll get bullshit questions about join and which join is best to use.
Next step is face to face. You may get more of above. A lot of the times you get the bullshit math riddles everyone hates. Sometimes they put you on a dry erase board and ask you to draw diagrams and create databases. They also want to make sure you aren't an autist. Sometimes this is it. Sometimes you gotta meet the whole team you work with and they all quiz you. I interviewed for a position in Bloomberg and they made me go to a site over the phone and type out c++ code as the manager watched. Bullshit about making sorted arrays with values the user inputs.
Even when you do well they might just fucking turn you down no reason. I have found being white and savvy helps get jobs because I am not an Indian and don't have an accent thus reverse affirmative actions works for me.
Anything else?

I am in B-school. I had plenty of real experience in international business and planning, just non-finance related. I can DCF/LBO/A/D and generally know my way around excel, and I have been building slide decks for 7 years. Just not in IB.
plus I prefer MM rather than BB.

This is true. At my old firm we had single clients with 50-80 million in assets. Our minimum was about 750k if I remember right. We were a boutique private service and dealt mostly with hedge funds and a lot of overseas (read: corrupt as fuck chinese) money.

You don't have a single tangible accomplishment mentioned.
You list way to many languages/frameworks. If you're applying for, say, a database job at a company that uses php + mysql are you going to hire:

>like?
Off the top of my head I remember getting this one once:
http://www.programmerinterview.com/index.php/puzzles/rope-bridge-puzzle-four-people-one-flashlight/
>like what?
One interview the manager asked me to go on the board and design a basic database that represents how Amazon.com does business. So I had to make tables for account information, stock, inventory and create keys and join them so it made logical sense. That specific one wasn't that hard.
>and what questions do they quiz you with?
General programing questions. Theory. Surprisingly very little syntax but sometimes you do get a snippet of code and they ask you to tell them what's wrong with it. Most of the time you write pseudo code. A lot of it has to do with sorting arrays or dynamically changing arrays.
>It's so fucking obvious you're bullshitting when you give ZERO details.
Why are you so mad? I answering what you are asking. Not everyone who posts on 4chan is bitterly unemployed. Sure I have other problems that draw me to here but employment and programming isn't it.

Go get experience. I can't help you. Approach people and show that you genuinely care about finance. Continue following up with people and applying to positions for internships.

I wouldn't get in to high frequency trading these days anyways to be honest. It seems like a house of cards--- as soon as the smallest amount of regulation is imposed it all collapses.
I know that the MFE program here recruits heavily from Physics/Math PhD programs. Apparently ~~20% of the students in a given year have that background. Most of them end up going into strats and modeling apparently. My secondhand anecdotal evidence is that all else being equal, having a PhD in a technical field gets you a better position with a bigger salary than just the MFE alone.
>>44209481
Have you ever hired a nigger, and if yes- - why?
My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, "If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately." Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- "Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 28, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because your post gave me cancer anyway.
>>44207308

That what I was hoping for, I really hate angular 2 why would they do that.
To answer your question,
I don't know, they say its probably going to be similar to directives but I'm really resistant to change with that.
It's not that I don't know those language/frameworks I just know enough to exploit it.
There are only 4 languages in my resume
JS, (iOS) Objective C, Java(Android), PHP
(PHP stuff were done to integrate the java backend to multiple ecommerce sites using PHP stuff meaning I needed to learn their frameworks but not entirely)

Do you fucking expect me to remember the full question with exact numbers for a position I interviewed 2 fucking years ago? I remember I had a rope bridge question so yes I googled it which is the only thing I googled.
>so what was the pseudo code that you wrote?
I already told you, you get mostly questions about arrays and sorting and dynamic expansion because that is a good indicator at the junior level that you paid attention in college. They like to have you make binary search algorithm's for example and do the Fibonacci sequence. Sometimes make anagram like programs.
>what was the snippet of code that they gave you?
From my two year old interview I remember the code ultimately threw an array out of bounds exception.
>again zero fucking details nice try nigger.
I am giving you nothing but details but you clearly sound like a bitter angry fuck projecting hard in this thread. You a failed developer? No degree and bullshit certs annoyed that no one will hire you? Frustrated that Bestbuy discontinued the Geek Squad so you can't act like king beta anymore?
Is there an age limit with internships and how odd is it to see someone around thirty doing it?
I spent my early twenties working in bars and partying before going to uni and getting a degree in physics and astrophysics so my work history (although a decade long) isn't really applicable in this instance, other than me having fantastic interpersonal skills and being as far from the typical physics autist as you can get. I would imagine the age thing precludes me from getting a bottom-rung dogsbody placements or am I talking shit? As far as I can tell, my skillset would make me ideal for some sort of analyst position but where would someone in my circumstances start?

>Jokes on you, our IT infrastructure is just an office printer and some wireless routers.
That's cool, but lot's of other companies have larger IT infrastructures, and IT majors are in decline while there is a larger than average growth in our field. So I guess some other company will have to rely on a lazy retard millennial like me.
>>44211631
you sound like the jews worshipping money and your precious "firms" of "wall street"
that's fucking Jewish. worry about money all the time? that's soulless jewry.
>>44211778
why do you care then?

Why didn't you just get a six figure job straight out of high school and buy a big house in the suburbs, anon?

huh, never have heard the term SFO but thanks for upping my acronym vocabulary. seems like that would be a pretty decent place to be, considering the way they operate. people that run them, based on what i've read, are akin to highly personal CFPs for families.
thanks. any more tidbits you'd like to share?
>>44211789
I don't really care. It is just I am 32 with no debt and a car fully paid for. I got a job offer today for 32K and I was like "woah! that's great!"(i've made more before but where i live and with my circumstances this is pretty good) and then i see these kids getting out of school and thinking they are going to earn six figures and it is funny to me. I could easily live off 32K and it is just funny seeing people biting their nails and squirming and bitching about working for some "firm" somewhere like they are an 80s hotshot.
>>44211893
>I got a job offer today for 32K
Shabbos Goy?
>>44211216
Oh that's rich, that really is.
>>44211918
whatever, man. i don't play their game. I live on the edge and do what I want. I don't even have experience in the field i was hired for, they just saw I hiked through the mountains for 6 months and were like "woah, you're cool" and i got the job. im not pretending to be what I am not and i don't think i am entitled to anything more than a place to rest my head at night and food on the table.
>>44211893
>GOOD GOY TAKING 32K FOR A 40 HOUR WORK WEEK!
you are either full of shit or have no skills, you can work at target 40 hours a week and be making the same money
>>44207764
>they lie about everything
What is their other choice?
>>44211795
I know what you're trying to catch me in here, our job market is under-saturated, and people are fighting over positions like mine. But with handling a company's IT infrastructure, many critical services and lots of important data would be in my hands. Employers use 4 years degrees as a measure against hiring fuck ups that may compromise these things. So I guess you could say I'd be getting that 6 figure salary as soon as I'm out of college. In the end, because of the short demand and necessity of big data, they'd still be relying on a lazy retarded millennial. So your whole argument is moot when applied to my field.
>>44212044
*short supply and
>>44212001
target starts at what, 10 bucks an hour? if you're LUCKY. I am making about 666 a week, that's pretty good. you're just deluded and you have no concept of self worth beyond a high paying job.
I consider it good pay. I don't have any hang ups about it at all.

>not having a paper shredder
800 Million USD investment firm my ass.
>>44212092
where do you live? you literally cannot have any quality of life at 32k unless you are getting a shit load of public assitance
>>44212171
wtf are you talking about? I live in Fairfield County, CT. Rent in the area where I live is about 1000K a month. all expenses put together(food, gas, insurance, internet) and I am looking at maybe 1600 a month. That leaves me with roughly 600 a month extra counting out taxes.
>>44212171
Seriously dude, but fuck you, man. What do you need in your life that can't be paid for with 32k annual salary? If you want more, go out there and make yourself worth more.
>>44211859
A SFO can have multiple general partners, which can be confusing for people. Generally ones that are actually organized for families invest in fund managers, while wealthy individuals that use it as a personal investment vehicle tend to rely on direct investment. All the MDs in SFOs know each other and there are a million events hosted involving SFOs by Opal Financial.
>>44212001
32k isn't bad for a lot of the country. If your rent is $150/month that's pretty decent.
>>44212016
I swear to god if half of them learned excel and were honest about their prior responsibilities, my trash would be much less full. I even put together a spring program for people with no background in finance. Only two people were honest about their lack of experience and both got in.
>>44212163
Why would I overheat my shredder with hundreds of resumes and make a fuckton of confetti that requires me to change my trash bags? There's nothing personal besides name and email on them. Only a handful even left phone numbers.

Yeah I was making 40K and I felt like I had more money than I knew what to do with. It is amazing how little we need to get by in life. I'd rather have an easy job that pays me enough to get by than some stressful, highly competitive job just so I can drive around in a more expensive hunk of metal with for tires or sleep in a more expensive structure that shelters me from bad weather.
32K entry level is not bad. And I am not that old. it isn't like my life is over. everything is in passing. learn to enjoy the small things.
i mean, if you want to be a high roller high flyer more power to you but there is no shame in making a modest income.
>>44212481
IT is oversaturated as fuck, and this is only going to get worse as PCs and generic workstations finish being replaced with iProducts and 'cloud'
You're going to be competing with guys who only have an A+ Cert and 10-25 years experience under their belts gunning for those same network infrastructure and data jobs and they'll get the consideration first because they'll have what you don't have: experience.

another question OP
on the subject of secondary skills, what in your area is deemed important? stuff that is outside the usual required for a job (using excel, being competent, getting along), like second languages or something like that?
>>44207308
>tfw 24 and have gained amazing real job experience over the past year as well as a $20,000 pay increase
keep tossing the other guys in the trash anon, LOL
What's one tip you'd give someone applying for a job?

>>44212908
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA
no but seriously.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAAA.
go over to JHE and beg the engies to give you a job when they make it to upper management.
Alrighty OP, your picture looks photoshopped as fuck but let me try and elicit an amusing response.
I am 24, unemployed, living off of disability, without any degree or any skills that could get me a degree.
I have a crippling non-verbal learning disability, no talents at anything, a piss-poor work ethic, and an extreme case of apathy/depression. I was either heavily bullied or a social outcast for most of my life, which along with a long list of drama and family issues like watching my mother try to kill herself with sleeping meds when I was 9, and a whole host of other traumatic events which I will not go into has left me socially retarded and highly distrustful/spiteful towards other people.
I am an outcast even amongst other outcasts. Literally the bottom of the barrel. A kissless virgin. All the few friends I had had betrayed or forgot about me when they went to college.
The only thing I have going for me is that I am a 6/10 and normal weight not some fat neckbeard
What are my chances of being hired, assuming you actually are who you say you are and are not just a highly involved troll?
>>44212972
None, go to community college at least.
Well, looks like a wrecked OP with >>44212821, I'm out.
>>44212955
lol might as well go the day of the rope then
I have yet to meet an engineer that isn't a complete fucking autist
>>44212908
Every single buddy I know who is in commerce at Mac are having to work two jobs to support their unpaid internships.
>>44212972
just go do fuckin something anon, there's opportunities everywhere if you can just get your skinny-fat butt out of the basement and into an associates program
>>44207764
nice fake writing
Does wall street really hire MDs in a consultant capacity?
Im a med student that is already sick of patient care. Obviously I need to do residency get my license but I always hear this is an option. Is it really though?
>>44212972
Your chances would be higher if you stop blaming the world for you being a worthless, unskilled, muh depression faggot. Find a bottom of the barrel job, save your money, get an education, and climb the ladder. That's all
>>44213069
>unpaid internships
People do this?
>>44213069
So essentially I'm fucked beyond recognition?
>>44212972
I am not OP but here is my advice:
you need to get yourself a job to get experience. 24 is still very young.
call up a temp agency and get some experience under your belt. put something interesting on your resume so they remember you. that means you have to do something interesting, that will make you stand out as someone with character.
>>44213126
Morons that get shit degrees do this.
>>44213128
If you go and get an MBA you'll live. But that requires you to qualify and be able to afford an MBA. If I were you I'd check out the colleges and/or trades.
Also I do hear the army is hiring, so you could go there.
>>44213124
>Implying I am blaming the world for my failures.
I am painfully aware of my uselessness and that it is my fault. I see no reason to contribute to a society which has shunned me, however. And even if I did, I never could improve myself if I tried however. I'm fairly retarded.
I guess I'll just continue living off your tax dollars until the day of the rope clears me out.
>>44209789
Honestly I've been interviewing for software development positions and everything he says is spot on.
>>44211177
Would you hire someone if they threw a hidden dank meme into their resume? Provided the rest was solid of course...
I was lazy in high school and college. I only had one job in college that lasted for less than a year. Am I fucked now? It seems like everywhere I interview people are expecting much more than that. How many jobs do most 21 year olds have under their belts?
>>44212972
Lol. You are touched by the gods.
As someone who has your condition, I have one piece of advice
>learn to use your talents to lead, then crusade for a higher power
>a dyspraxic who fails to fight, will fail to live.
>literally, Einstein, Marx, Hitler, and Churchill all had the condition
It's an awful, but powerful, curse to be born with Germanic shaman genes.
