Good luck! Remember jobs are like polyamours are like buses. If you miss one, you just have to wait 15 minutes for the next one to come along ;)

Finally finished with the sample allocation, fund review, and individual security/sector review. Is there any way to post word docs or pdfs here without having to awkwardly transfer them to word online or a google doc?

It went well! I showed them the excel sample and case study and they seemed imprressed. I sent them thank you e-mails afterwards. They'll get back to me to see of I got the final interview this upcoming week. If I move on, it'll be 2-3 people vying for 1-2 spots.

That said, I've had interviews seem to go really well and still not get anything, so, I suppose we'll see. At least I did my best. : )

Congrats! What will happen on these "Super-days"? Do they test you on some things?

The Kobyashi Maru problem? Hazing rituals? Scientology "auditing" maybe? :lol:

Congratulations! Have you found out what the typical day / week is like in the NY job? Double in person interviews sounds like a test of your endurance.

Any update on the University opportunity?

Two final interviews done. I think they went really well. Now I wait to hear back for the next two weeks while catching up on school work!

Finished an interview with a third company today, first round. This one is with a really large bank headquartered in the state of NY. Very different from the size and culture of the other two. I think it went really well. Now wondering whether it's best to work in the city, suburbs, or somewhere in between, and what size company is best.
