I know this has been asked before but I can’t find the thread. How much do firms care about GPA as an experienced hire? I had a really shitty GPA in college.. will that affect my offer?

At a manager level probably no one cares. I have done interviews and got verbal offers before even applying on firms website. So there should not be any issues. With experience hires your experience matters more than anything and how you perform in interview, obviously.

Doesn’t matter. I’d say about half the resumes I get don’t even have the gpas on them

Right I don’t have mine on my resume. But when I went to fill out the formal application online it asked for it. And obviously when they pull my transcripts they’ll see it

Thanks guys!!

If a firm has multiple openings that you’re interested in, is it a good or bad idea to apply to more than one position? I’m a third year interested in retooling from lit to general corp, but they prefer someone with 3+ years of corporate experience. They’re also looking for an M&A with 1+ years, so it may be easier to aim for that, but I’ve heard horror stories re WLB for M&A. Would still try it out tho bc I’m desperate to leave lit, but don’t want to make a faux pas. Any insights appreciated!
