Message Name: Am I too late for a decent job?
Date Posted: 01/20/2006
Message: This May I will be graduating from Penn State with a 3.95 GPA (top 0.0005% class rank), good extracurriculars and some work experience but none that is relevant. Am I too late to get a decent job in the financal services industry? Am I safe in assuming that the big firms are definitely out? If so, where should I be looking? Any specific firm recomendations? Are the lower firms on the top 50 list still hiring? Should I be looking at boutiques and if so, which ones? Also, what kind of difference in salary and bonus should I expect in comparison to the big firms? Thanks.
