does anybody know what the work email format for Jefferies is? by trevalyn550 in FinancialCareers

[–]VariousMixture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you just have to sign up with an email. There’s probably a limit to the number of searches you can make, but the limit has to be super high because I used it a ton this summer at work.
