In London, if you are in any of the 4 universities, cam, ox, lse, ic, you will receive a certain level of " recognition" from the employers. furthermore, if you are from the relavant majors and you did a good research on the firm , you should have the chance of an interview ( in normal years).

What about LBS compared to the 4 universities?

thats for MBA

i am talking about undergrads here

of cos LBS is good, but it does not make sense to me,

aaaaaa1987

But LBS also has Master in Finance and Master in Management.

let me quote some ideas from the career service office in LSE:

the financial sector  definitely experienced a hard hit, and many banks cut cost by massive firings. employers tend to give more short term jobs than permanent offers. overall, the banks (referring to IBs) probably do not know what they are doing or what they should be doing at the moment.

I guess we need to have an understanding of the recruitment model. all banks prefer to hire full time from interns ( safer bet, isn't it?) the internship itself is an extended interview. therefore, it is hard to get a full time offer directly. to put it simple, if i have someone who had an internship from goldman, why would i be interested in someone without any experience in the sector?

the career service lady actually joked with us last time, saying that you guys are in LSE, should be more optimisitc. after all, if everyone is queueing for  an offer, you are in the front rows. thats the original idea. it makes sense, 覆巢之下，安有完卵？we got to pray for a turning point, and wait for the chances to come.

可是LSE金融的项目只有短短十个月，应该不会有时间实习吧？！

既然这样，就业。。。

lz，请问今年你们这个项目大概多少人找到工作了？或者差不多能找到工作？

英国实在不好找的话，转战美国继续找的胜率有多少？ thankkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkss

you should apply for interns now... once you got the offer... just put that in your CV. that will get you an interview somehow.

see the previous postings for job placements. I am confident that after awhile, almost everyone from my class will get an offer, cause they have really strong backgrounds. for us, it is either front office or nothing in most of the cases...

London is a place of opportunities i should say...hehe

can it be longer, since 10-month is really short to find an internship and a job?

我的托福考了99分想申请finance and economices，可是要求是100分，这样的情况下能不能够申请呢，或者有没有其它的解决办法呢：例如先申请，明年开学前上个语言学校或者再考托福之类的

非常感谢您的帮助

LZ, does everybody can secure an offer? However, I know some LSE guys come back to China because they can not find job in UK.

If it is true, then maybe I will consider LSE
