1. Here's how u get instantly hired. Sell ur soul and humanity away ur not gonna need those.
   2 prove to them that ur willing to take all the risks involved in making black money 💰 u get a large pay bump but at they expense of u and only u going to jail they will deny everything . They make a profit and you take on all the risks.
2. fraudman sachs?
3. Those students who supposedly have an interest in finance should read "Why I Left Goldman Sachs" by Greg Smith.
4. Getting hired at GS
   Step 1: Kill a kitten........
   Step 2......
5. Goldman Sachs hired people who are psychopath.
6. you heard the colleges and mention Yale Dartmouth if you can go into these Ivy League schools don't even try applying there's a man on YouTube called Aaron clarey check him out
7. I want to work at goldman so I can get paid the big bucks
8. Very helpful Video! :-) For getting in, I can also recommend the official Investment Banking Prep Guide App:

9. rather work at j.p Morgan they have more revenue
10. Too big to fail. These big banks should be broken up.
11. what course required to be an investment banker?
12. It's still easier to get a graduate job in the States.
    
    Here in the UK you need to go through countless levels until you even get to the interview. The following recruitment process is being used in the UK to recruit Analysts at Goldman Sachs.
    
    1. Online Application (consists 4 questions with 300 words each to express your motivation)
    2. Online Tests (Numerical, Analytical, Logical)
    3. Motivation (They contact you to ask you to fill another section of your application. Not that you didn't fill 1200 words already)
    4. Telephone Interview (Competency-based questions)
    5. Assessment Center (20 applicants doing group exercises)
    6. Final Interview
    7. Offer
    
    All this starts in October the previous year to recruit graduates in September next year.
13. How about with experience? could you start at a small investment bank/firm and then move up the ladder and get into Goldman? would that work?
14. This is bullshit, I know a guy who was mediocre and did not possess a superb command of the English language at my university and he got into goldman. The statistic probably hides the fact that almost all of the "applicants" applied via internet as so many people adecuate/non-adecuate apply
15. forgot nepotism for a recommendation
16. If your clever and qualified and want to do this kind of thing, go and work for a decent hedge fund and be a trader, that's where all the big money is since the crash, investment banks have had their day. The days of massive bonuses are long gone, and your literally signing up to spend 12 hours a day watching algorithms make decisions for you.
17. anal
18. porn
19. who would even want to join goldman when u have mckinsey with better hours
