Would you send your DC to HYP so that they will find a quant job?

a girl on my kid's dorm at Yale had a Jane Street internship last summer. Major was philosophy. No double major. No nepo

It amazes me how DCUM posters just want to outright lie about anything and everything. There were 7 Yale interns at Jane Street last summer and ALL of them were STEM majors.

How would you know that?

They are a pathetic loser who needs a life. Or they are lying. Or both.

Are you a stalker? Or do you just need a hobby? Every time a poster here mentions Jane Street the world gets a little dumber...

I’m no more than a stalker than you. I’m just informed.

You go to get an education and make connections. As with other schools, HYP students have many different goals and interests that inform their post-college path. Some want to change the world, others want to live comfortable and fulfilling lives in the world they've been given.

Overheard a conversation while standing in line buying laxatives?

Nah unlike you who fabricated stuff while waiting in line to use your food stamp with your philosophy degree.

People forget that some of these firms are now fairly large and hire interns for many departments.

A firm like Citadel or Jane Street have roles outside of quant trading, and they hire summer interns...some are working in PR/Bus Dev/Marketing which have zero to do with trading, but nonetheless can be lucrative compared to other internships in those types of areas.

Similarly, Goldman Sachs hires interns to work in their PE groups, their prop trading groups, there investment banking groups...as well as back-office fulfillment jobs as well as their IT groups, marketing groups, etc.

The issue people have is that these students sell themselves as sjw's with nonprofits and then work for McKinsey.

So yeah, can confirm that OP is correct.

You think colleges don’t know that? It’s a game and everyone is just playing along.
