<p>suze,
I’m not including back office jobs.</p>
<p>collectivsynergy,
I think that the Buy side gets way too little consideration from college students and even less from high schoolers trying to factor that into their college selection process. I include the Buy side to include the large asset management firms of the world, eg Blackrock or some other large branded firm, who are likely hiring more undergrad than are private equity and the hedge fund shops. </p>
<p>barrons,
I actually agree with you. No presumption here, but it is something that is talked about often on CC and thus I thought it might be an interesting topic. </p>
<p>I probably should have titled the thread something like “college recruiting and the world of finance” as there is so much good and interesting stuff happening outside of NYC. Frankly, your experience in real estate finance might help expand the view of high schoolers and college students to an interesting part of the financial world that is not often considered as a career option.</p>
