I think as a student I can’t directly reply to comments - but as a response to someone assuming lower grades - I actually have a pretty solid GPA and have started networking at other places too. I just assumed increasing the number of channels to network would be a good idea.

Good luck, I know my capital markets team is done hiring (usually done early fall) but maybe some will appear in mid Jan

Honestly you should probably be asking your careers office, upper years or alumni, especially since it’s close to summer recruiting time for these firms. Not sure how asking on Fishbowl is a better use of time, especially since that signals likely lower grades for oncampus recruiting.

Hi everybody,

Looking for some insight/curious to hear how others would handle this situation:

I have an offer I want to accept; I was trying to negotiate for a signing bonus… but they’re not budging.

The issue is, the start date is in a month and I’m up for a promotion in a week at my current company. I would like to leave before I get promoted, I think it would be pretty low of me to accept and promptly quit.

Not the new employer’s problem? Or can/should I try to leverage this?

Been passed over for promotion twice (had support from multiple partners both times). Received the top performance rating every year since joining the firm (6 years), which I’ve heard is rare. When passed over, the partners say there were others who have been waiting longer (not necessarily with the highest ratings) and that I should “keep doing what I’m doing” and basically wait my turn. Anyone else face this and have any suggestions/guidance?

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either. Then you get an interview and they tell you it’s remote/hybrid(1-2-3days, take your pick)/on-site. So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
