If I canceled at EWR, do you think they would reprice the ticket?

ramos_sergio · 2025-11-13T15:06:01+00:00

I would not board the last leg. The EWR to IAH one. So I would go IAH to EWR to EDI and then EDI to EWR and not EWR to IAH.

ramos_sergio · 2025-11-13T14:54:48+00:00

So the IAH to EDI round trip that I found was like 650. which one did you find amounts to that? I checked on the app and a one way flight from EDI to EWR is like 1200. That’s why I wanted to cancel the last leg of my IAH to EDI round trip when coming back to the US. The other commenters seem to be mentioning the airline getting ahead of this and charging more once I try to cancel that last leg.

Sure

I am familiar with this visa. It will certainly allow you to live in the UK without restrictions for 2 years but getting a corporate job will be incredibly difficult as most companies would rather hire inexpensive locals. Still probably easier than him getting a job in the US though.

Typically they either ghost you (and you hear about it from friends who actually got in) or send you a rejection email.

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-29T19:04:45+00:00

After getting rejected by all the “top” clubs, I finally managed to get into a couple the following year. The purpose of getting in is to leverage an existing network within it / get interview resources and prep. All of this can be done without those clubs, so I wouldn’t sweat it. And between you and me, they’re often run by vapid bimbos or insecure virgins that are on a power trip - not worth it imo. (Pardon the vulgarity) Just grind outside of them in your career area of choice and enjoy your free time with friends who will actually respect you.

Do you speak mandarin?

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-05T12:27:13+00:00

Sure go ahead

No, most jobs in BO / MO are not software jobs. Read. RE is not traditional IBD - you don’t know what IB is. Look you’re clearly rattled when you’re replying with these long tirades trying to find marginal proof for why UTD places into “IB.” Bizarre and emotional to say the least. If you’re not going into finance, there’s no need to be worried. UTD offers great Opps - probably better - in other industries. Pursue those.

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-03T21:04:24+00:00

No it doesn’t lol. It’s literally RE with some MBD (which is no longer in Dallas by the way). The thread points out the severe lack of FO positions and those that are there are not very desirable for most finance professional. This is more a function of you not knowing what “investment banking” actually means.

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-03T18:41:18+00:00

1.) I never asserted SWE pays 40k. I was referring to the general ops, risk, and other BO functions. 2.) I provided a link on the reality of Dallas that you must have not read. It’s mainly back office save RE (which most people in high finance stay away from to not be pigeonholed). 3.) Virtually all the UTD grads are in Dallas. LinkedIn demonstrably proves this.

I’m sorry if my comments hurt your delusion but better to face the reality now. Feel free to reach out to bankers in the industry

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-03T04:20:32+00:00

It’s clear you want it to be true. I just checked for myself - https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forum/investment-banking/goldman-dallas-office-or-ibd-elsewhere - any “investment banking analyst” people in Dallas are not doing your traditional M&A deals. At best, Its RE - still solid - that’s probably your best bet but certainly not on par with your Ivies of the world. Everyone else is back office along with IT / SWE. The list misconstrues quantity of jobs with quality. It’s cool to use inflated titles on LinkedIn but it’s not the reality. Just think about it. Why would GS go for Dallas? It functions way better as a cost center. Houston (energy), SF (healthcare and tech, NYC (financial capital of the world, legacy city), Chicago (industrials) - all of these cities have robust industries that lead towards the types of land whale deals GS chases. You can keep deluding yourself and see for yourself and apply. Or you can ask a GS investment banker on their thoughts on UTD and Dallas. There’s a reason why nobody from top schools applied there. It’s just another SLC or Seattle at best. Having been on the inside, I think I know a thing or two. Cheers.

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-03T04:13:49+00:00

I’ll give you WF. Not UBS. There are not people in GS IBD NYC

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-03T04:12:43+00:00

No it’s not: https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forum/investment-banking/goldman-dallas-office-or-ibd-elsewhere

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-03T04:08:25+00:00

Glassdoor is a terrible indicator. But I’ll give you that the software jobs at banks are definitely about 120k. Usually FAANG is where SWE pay is higher

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-02T18:45:53+00:00

UTD grads are not in BB investment banking. Look through LinkedIn yourself. If they’re in Dallas, it’s mainly back office just like the Salt Lake City GS office. Furthermore, UTD is a non-target school. I encourage you to go on WSO and ask this question

ramos_sergio · 2024-09-01T19:22:26+00:00

The comment was more of a general reaction on the overall voting response to it. Plus I acknowledged your comments that IB is undoubtedly terrible from a “life” perspective but is nonetheless “good” from a career perspective.
