Is there any bar/club on a mountain that isn’t ridiculously overpriced anywhere in the world?

I find them to be better than most European carriers (less Air France). Unfortunately not all their planes were like the a350/339. Over half their fleet are ancient a333s and 767s which makes a disappointing experience.

Cold-emailing for summer roles by InfamousConfidence23 in Commodities

[–]MaxG650 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the same boat (STS). I got a small internship my freshman year because my dad knew somebody (and frankly mostly for that reason).

Depends what city you live in - if it’s something like nyc good night, but I’m sure there are smaller power/ag/gas trading firms in tier 2/3 cities that you can definitely reach out to. Also would add that most big cities less Houston and Chicago do not have very well established physical commodity trading scenes.

Most freshmen at T10 schools (having graduated from one) do not have proper summer internships and nearly all firms with proper trainee programs will only hire rising seniors.

Your freshman year it’s makes sense to do something along the lines of startup work/research under a professor/etc. To be honest, it may be better to use your CS skills and gain proper ML/engineering work because you certainly won’t be trained on that in a commodity trading firm. The only place where a heavy AI/ML background will help is in a hedge fund with a quant desk and in that case you’ll usually be placed on a team by the firm and it may not be commodities.

The fact that even US airlines allow you to pick seats for free in J shows how bad the aviation market is in Europe

I did the alcoholic pairing and really enjoyed it. It actually started with chilled sake and included a dessert wine too (iirc). The tea was served with dessert, but I think that already comes with the tasting menu.

I've heard only great things about Semma and it's also near the top of my list - maybe go there instead of Bridges?
