Sorry, this question is out of my scope.  I dont work in back office

Basically, getting in IBD or S&T in US is still possible, but very very very TOUGH.   Given on what I've seen in our school, no Chinese students got invited to IB internship interviews.  But please dont give up hope if that is truly the destination you want to go for the rest of your life.  Under the circumstance with weak economic strengh and high unemployment rate, remember to "be flexible."  What I want to say is you never know what's gonna happen three years from now.  I assume that the eco would turn way much better than it is now.  Chances would be bigger.  The thing you can do now is to get in you ideal school, stick tight to your goal, and work on it til the end.  For now, I think the biggest chance to find a finance-related job in US is to get a job as internal control, or auditing-related jobs. These jobs requires high skills but few oral communication with others.  We have better chances in these jobs than in IB or S&T.

We have solid relationship with JPM, CITI,BofAML, and AE.  Goldman starts to recruit our people for interns and Morgan Stanley starts to hire us for full-times. -- by 会员 nyer15 (2011/1/20 9:58:29)

谢谢LZ答疑！

针对LZ所说的这两句话，我想确认一下：虽然Goergetown跟这几个银行关系紧密，但中国学生还是基本进不去吧？或者说IBD和sales&trading部门（在美国的office）完全没什么希望了？那像equity research一类的，甚至更后台的部门，有希望么？

谢谢热心的LZ！

进一步问一下：也就是说学MBA finance方向的中国同学找的一般都是内部审计（internal audit）的工作？另外，记得比如像GS有个Finance部门，MS有个Financial Control Group ,请问类似这种Finance部门有中国学生进去吗？LZ可否介绍一下这类工作？

此前有四大经验的同学一般的找的是corporate finance。很多企业也有financial control部门，比如ExxonMobil之类的，但这些大公司很多都不招国际学生，这个跟你去哪个学校读ＭＢＡ没有直接关系。

投行还是喜欢要之前有finance背景的，你要是有个什么CPA，CFA之类的，那找工作就牛B大了

NGO工作想要找肯定有，不过给你一年4-5万美金，你愿意做吗？

版上上一个GU的答疑帖貌似是五年以前的了，真高兴看到我的dream school又有热心人站出来为大家答疑解惑。虽然我已经在R1被WL了，但对GU的向往依然无丝毫减少。请问Nyer15同学，GU的国际学生在NGO工作的多么？是否也有F1签证带来的麻烦？谢谢！今后还会经常来提问的

谢谢C前辈的回答，收入对我来说并非第一考量，其实我的本意是希望在毕业后回国继续在现在的行业里工作，但在那之前，我倾向于在NGO或者其它NON-Profit组织中工作一段时间，给自己的人生增添一些不一样的内容。本人天资驽钝，各种顶尖投行或咨询类的工作不敢企及，而且也真的并非我所喜爱的方向；虽然没啥本事但好歹有一腔热血，所以想着是否能够在类似NGO的地方找找出路......当然这些都是后话了，首先离开那个悲催的waitlist才是我现在的当务之急啊，呵呵

Keep your faith.  Actually I was 2nd-round waitlist and finally got admitted at the last minute. Or you can probably get other better admission.  Dont worry.

谢谢楼主的回答，如果准备回香港或者投行的亚洲OFFICE，请问一下US MBA是不是有一定的优势呢？就整个US MBA你所观察到的情况而言

nyer15

It definately helps with a US MBA. But given the highly competitive selection process, a solid US MBA give you some chance but not all chances.  If I got time, I would talk more about GU in HK, our alumni network, and job placement in HK.

谢谢你的现实性的回答啊。你觉得进FS比较难的原因主要是什么呢？语言问题？
