Get a bunch of friends together and all go live in an exotic location: I'm graduating in may and in the fall a small group of us are moving to new zealand for a year or so.

Nothing like waiting until the last minute and then thinking you'll "look into" something you're not qualified for. Wtf is wrong with people?

I guarantee you Princeton has a career services office you can go to and ask these questions. There are places you can go to ask these questions, and 2+2 isn't quite as good at getting your foot in the door with a law firm or I-bank as Princeton is.

A Princeton grad with any major is more qualified than most finance majors for a finance position, and Im sure he could apply and get one. School name goes a long way.

Do you think there's a chance that Dave didn't post this thinking that it was the best way to find a job?

Bc he knows people who will hire him based on his being friends with their children..../????

In no other way is a VERY MEDIOCRE Ivey league grad with degree in an unrealted field that isnt remotely mathematical qualified to work in finance.

BTW is Princeton is like Harvard a 3.2 is pretty darn low.

The Ivey league is rife with grade inflation these days.

I don't think you could manage even a 1.5 at Harvard/Princeton, from reading your posts, so maybe you should just stop.

getting less than a 2-2.5 or so really requires effort.
