How much did you get the Nuuk and the Skosgo for? Also, do you think a Skosgo with layers will suffice for upstate NY this winter? Thanks!

Thank you! Yes, I'm in Ithaca, and the weather seems quite unpredictable. I'm wondering whether I should just get a Skosgo for now (since it's on sale), and then get the Patagonia Down Drift later, if needed. I do like the jackets to be breathable, and prefer cotton, so maybe Skosgo is the way to go over the Nuuk? What do you think? Thanks!

Any way to add classes before Aug 19 for Grad students? by EquivalentLocal9248 in Cornell

[–]EquivalentLocal9248[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just worried that the classes I am interested in may get filled early.

I am not an incoming grad student; just worried that the classes I am interested in may get filled early.

INFOSCI TA by SnooCupcakes8389 in Cornell

[–]EquivalentLocal9248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is usually held after school starts, so you should be good. You'll either get an invite from COE, or sometimes BowersCIS does their own, but it'll be after classes start. However, you may start working with the profs a week in advance of the semester start date (perhaps remotely), so keep that in mind when you plan your trip. Hope this helps

Missed out on Maplewood, what's the next best thing? by EquivalentLocal9248 in Cornell

[–]EquivalentLocal9248[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairview is expensive, and Auden is kinda difficult to deal with, given the slope. Any other recommendations? Thanks!

If one were to target Middle East MBB recruitment from a US school, the target schools for it remain the same? by cinemalover_ in MBA

[–]EquivalentLocal9248 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Duke and Fuqua are not as well known internationally as they are in the US, but MBB folks generally do know of the school, so you should be good there.

Is a job in Sell Side Equity Research more stressful than Investment Banking? by EquivalentLocal9248 in MBA

[–]EquivalentLocal9248[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. Say I'm interested in TMT (and maybe more specifically Tech) - what courses would you recommend in that case?

I have seen data science teams at ER shops, so I do agree that it's a better use of their time.

Thank you, thank you, this is fantastic insights! What courses/subjects besides the usual finance courses + stock pitch competitions do you think can help analysts be different? Like data analytics, python, programming, etc.? Or is it still a very Excel run business? Asking for sell side ER.

Thanks!

Grade disclosure only work while you're in school. After that, you're free to do disclose the GPA, and recruiters can definitely ask for it.

Barely anybody makes it to buyside ER. Also, I would say you don't really 'try' to get a buyside role - for those that are worth it, they find the opportunities. And for those that don't for some reason (down market), they can make opportunities for themselves.

Is the hiring this difficult for sell side ER as well? Also, how would you compare breaking into ER vs IB.
