I got a JOB
Reply
Posted 2007-11-10, 08:44 AM
I was in class yesterday and Bear Sterns, one of the top financial firms in the world, calls me and announces that they want me to work with them. Basically, i have a job for the next 3 years with pay and bonuses. This is nuts

Cool. Do you have to do any kind of training? If so, are they paying you for training or are they asking you to pay for your training?

The position is in the controllers group of bear sterns. The two year training program is paid and then i get a raise once i get out of the program. It is an elite position and is held in the headquaters in Manhatten. Thank you

A lot of business places do. I know with accounting internships with a lot of companies you get paid 25 bucks an hour to goto DISNEYLAND.

Gruesome, FYI:

: bear sterns is alright but still, nothing to laugh at
: he'll be back office
Grаν¡tоnЅurgе: back office?
: it's an investment bank, unless you're a trader or analyst, you're their support function
: and just as a general rule, if you have to go through a two year training program first.... that's meh
: i'm not trying to make him look bad, just saying what i figure from the research ive had to do all this time about jobs
: two years training? its like saying "you didn't get a proper education we can't have you doing anything important"

You may want to keep yourself open for other offers, assuming you haven't already signed off on this.

Oh, and in response to Grav's post above:

Everyone pretty much has to put in their shit time with any company before they really make an impact, especially directly out of college. What do you expect, him to become an officer right away?

Grats on the job, hopefully you'll get to work with people you like and get some decent pay.
