[size=3]来自Barclays的拒信[/size]
山芋 发表于 2007-10-09 22:22:29
这段时间比较尴尬，NUS的deadline近在眼前，港大或港中大的网申还没开始。近来越来越倾向于去香港，一个原因当然是香港可以直接申Master(MPhil)，就算PhD也比新加坡短一年，再者新加坡总算去过了，再去似乎也没什么意思，香港离家里还近点。现在比较烦的就是，尽管比较讨打，还是要说——要是材料寄到新加坡直接给了offer而香港这边还没有回音怎么办……某天正在踌躇的时候突发奇想，那我去香港工作吧，也是缘于欧元/英镑急剧下挫，Google了一下才知道原来是因为巴克莱收购荷兰银行失败，预料中的几百亿英镑换成欧元收购款落空，再一点点到了Barclays Graduate Recruitment，呵呵，比较好奇，就进去申了个香港的交易分析员职位Analyst-Trading-Hong Kong.
投行的网申还真是麻烦啊，从高中起填到大学，还有三个open question，我郑重地预测美元指数未来数月将跌至68附近……全部回答完提交后竟然还要做两个test，先是一个Numerical Reasoning Test，难度类似于GRE数学，加加减减乘乘除除的……就是时间有点紧，一分钟一道。然后过了后又有一个Verbal Reasoning Test，据说象GMAT的逻辑题，我没做过不过挺简单，就是对、错、无法判断三个选项。完了以后，状态就变成了Your application is under consideration. 第二天起来，邮箱中收到一封拒信：

又完整一次，工作找不到，保研保不上，看来也只能出国了……不过还是要赞投行的效率，10/6网申，10/7第一个test，10/8第二个test，10/9发拒信……看来投行GPA<3.5一律拒之的说法也是可信的，更何况我根本是不搭界的专业，申的还是生死悠关的trading，巴克莱肯定是怕再发生巴林银行的惨剧……没啥遗憾的，本来就是申着玩玩——巴克莱，你吞不掉荷兰银行，就等着将来被"Youth Group"吞掉吧哈哈。

请问 你barclays verbal做的是英语的吗？ 15分钟读10大段话，好难啊
可以选语言的呀，还是选中文吧英语意思清楚但读起来太慢了……
