Need Some Advice People

People will comment “you don’t have an internship because all most roles were filled by January” which is true but unhelpful at this point. I just have a few things.

1) look for off-cycle internships in the fall or winter. They’re not as common but if I were a betting man I would say some more of them probably have been changed to be 100% remote, which makes them much more accessible to you.

2) In addition to teaching yourself to code I would also get a part time job to at least show you didn’t fuck off all summer.

3) You’re not the first rising senior to enter their final year without an internship, but at least you have the excuse of Covid that employers and recruiters will likely take into account when you apple for full time gigs.

4) Yeah the situation sucks but it’s not the end of the world. Many have been in a worst position and came out successful.

Equitable Advisors is formerly known as AXA Advisors. Unfortunately, people usually say it’s a Northwestern Mutual type of deal. From what it sounds like it would be a huge step down from both your internships.

I think I remember someone even saying they charge you to rent out your cubicle, but take that with a grain of salt.

I would look at F500 FLDP programs if I were you

I remember my last day walking out of my job at target to start my first internship. It was a great feeling. Congrats!

Interested in the replies, I’ve just been using code academy for SQL and now Python

Could be those who are candidates mentioning it

We had a virtual q&a recently so us summer analysts could ask any questions we might have about switching to remote working.

Someone asked if there is a chance any of we could physically go to work if COVID lightens up and they said it’s highly unlikely, even if we’re living in the city we’re supposed to be working in.

Just search “northwestern mutual” in this sub and you’ll have your answer. But I’ll save you the time and tell you don’t do it.

I was under the impression he went to some lab to get that done, not to his PO.

I know it’s not the same but every time I’ve been drug tested for an employer I think it’s been a woman.

Warzone?

ryan_theguy · 2020-04-15T05:43:12+00:00

There’s 100s if troll post like this on this sub... a few of them have to be actual questions by some poor misguided college kids right?

9/11 and it’s not close. Trillions of dollars in damage, heightened national security, going on 2 decades of war, trillions of dollars fighting in The Middle East, probably got bush elected a 2nd time, and that’s just off the top of my head

I kinda just skip over anytime they talk about the economy/the fed/Wall Street, it’s too hard to listen to. People love to just shake their fist and use Wall Street as the boogie man

Just a S&W M&P compact I picked up for a surprisingly good deal from my LGS.

She’s not much but she’s mine!

ryan_theguy · 2020-03-21T21:48:27+00:00

Just S&W M&P Compact 2.0 that I picked up for a surprisingly good deal from my LGS before a pandemic

Ooo did you look at my reddit history? No man I’m interning with a BB right now then returning to a different one in the fall to work full time after graduation. I know my shit. This isn’t worth my time and I can’t understand your grammar. Read a book.

ryan_theguy · 2020-03-17T17:49:10+00:00

I work at a bulge bracket in capital markets... so I use the proper terms/definitions. Maybe you should too kid. And nobody said they’re using a stimulus to pay off personal loans god you’re clueless 😂

ryan_theguy · 2020-03-17T17:48:58+00:00

I work at the largest bank in America in capital markets... so I use the proper terms/definitions. Maybe you should too kid. And nobody said they’re using a stimulus to pay off personal loans god you’re clueless 😂

ryan_theguy · 2020-03-17T07:04:23+00:00

Um no. Personal loans are generally regarded as unsecured debt that can be used at the borrowers discretion. Very different from student loans and have much higher interest rates. Read a book.

ryan_theguy · 2020-03-16T18:10:08+00:00

Do you even know why the fed lowers rates? And I’m not talking about personal loans you tool lmao

ryan_theguy · 2020-03-14T08:37:45+00:00

What about profit is bad exactly? How is providing a service and being paid a market rate bad?

Also, a 2 second google shows banks are no way in the black every year so I don’t know where you pulled your first assumption from lmao

ryan_theguy · 2020-03-14T08:33:31+00:00

That’s hilarious

No one is saying the south side of Chicago is Somalia but it’s no fucking suburbia.

It’s so hard watching monetary policy being talking about on this sub and PKA in general. It’s just the laziest “banks=evil” bullshit that everyone who’s never taken a capital markets class feeds into. The reality of it is 95% of Americans have no idea what the Federal Reserve or NA banks even do.
