500,000 for three years plus bonus.
Damn.
Will graduate from ugrad this coming year. |

They have a ugrad summer internship program as well as hire straight from ugrad at said schools. |

|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:15 AM Author: mewling lime senate The high-lvl actuaries are in high demand because the tests are pretty hard to pass. So there is a premium attached for those who have the qualifications.
Though I heard the first three tests are pretty easy. I know someone who placed very well in the putnam exam and passed to lvl 5 or whatever really easily. |

A relatively bright person who majored in Applied Mathematics or Econ with a heavy math focus should be able to pass the first three.
My friend who's a junior this year is going to take the first two this fall.

Date: August 17th, 2005 9:45 AM Author: mewling lime senate My friend told me that the interview was pretty laid back. Typical interview questions like "describe three attributes that would fit you" etc. He did mention that they did ask a few bizzare quant questions.
One of them that he found memorable was
"What is the degree formed by hands of a clock at ____ time."
The question itself isn't too hard, but he said it kindof took him off guard because it was thrown in randomly and because he had to answer it within a reasonable amount of time. |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 9:50 AM Author: Glittery Narrow-minded Prole Right, but I heard that once you make it to 2nd or final round, some firms will give you a 10k and make you construct an LBO model or something. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3607981) |

Date: August 17th, 2005 9:52 AM Author: Shivering indigo school hominid From my brother in law who has been in private equity in New York for about 10 years now...
top PE firms dont even hire out of college, and even when they do hire someone with an undergrad degree after a couple years of work, it is typically for 2 years pre-MBA, then they get kicked out. Also, $500k/yr right out of undergrad??? i would definitely call bs on that...
the top firms probably pay their analysts (who have 2 or 3 yrs of work experience already) total comp of 250-350k at most... |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 9:54 AM Author: Charismatic hell It's 500k/3yrs so that's a bit more believable but not by much. I also think a few private equity companies hire straight out of undergrad but probably only if the candidate has 1 or more summer internships in banking.

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:22 AM Author: mewling lime senate The thread itself is not absurd. I wanted to spark discussion about PE not whether or not my friend's salary is legit.
Regardless it's been a very entertaining thread just to see you get so worked up.
btw PE Funds do hire out of Ugrad. You are probably more familiar with Venture Capital Funds - a variety of PE which are smaller and recruit from more experienced hires. However, large firms, such as Blackstone, do very much hire straight from ugrad. |

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:27 AM Author: mewling lime senate MBAs are a stepping stone. Especially in the finance world. They teach you nothing you don't already know.
Plus if you work for a prestigious firm the chances of admission to HBS, GSB, Wharton are very very high.
BCG for example, which is only MC, boasts an 80% acceptance rate at top 5 b-schools.
Compared with med or law school, MBA admissions are pretty TTT. |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:32 AM Author: Shivering indigo school hominid You said exactly nothing.
Sure, you don't necessarily "learn" things you wouldn't learn anyway. But to underestimate the value of an MBA is just ignorance. You can have a nice career in finance without one, certainly, but good luck getting to the top of your field, let alone firm, without one. |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:36 AM Author: mewling lime senate Thus as I said its a stepping stone in your career.
Work two years as an analyst. If you don't make associate you get your mba.

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:20 AM Author: Charismatic hell How hard is it get into HBS? Their MBA class is like 1800 people, which is bigger than HLS even though law school is 3 years and business school is only 2. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608128) |

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:21 AM Author: Umber haunting newt Its not that high. 1500 maybe. Pretty tough though. The acceptance rate is quite low, HTH (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608133) |

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:34 AM Author: Umber haunting newt That is not easy for anyone, hth. I dont think the MBA people are intelligent compared to med or law people, but they have some interesting experience to bring to the table and charisma (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608225) |

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:29 AM Author: mewling lime senate Yo I said that in context to our discussion. Obviously HBS is not TTT, but business school in general (which is what I said) is pretty TTT compared to other graduate programs - namely med and law school.
Also you DO NOT KNOW JACK SHIT. As highlighted in the above post about actuaries.

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:42 AM Author: mewling lime senate I'm not the one making a hissy fit. Plus all the information I have posted so far is true, whereas half the shit you are saying is either false (actuaries) or indicate your lack of knowledge on this subject (like not recognizing Blackstone or the fact that PE funds do in fact recruit ugrads).
Plus another poster verified the salary information I was giving out below.

|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:53 AM Author: mewling lime senate Uh information on actuaries is not anecdotal as another poster pointed out.
Information on salary ranges also not neccesarily anecdotal. Another poster confirmed with similar data.

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:21 AM Author: High-end rusted locale I suspected PE salaries were high but I had no idea they were at this level. Seems possible though. I know somebody at KKR (no MBA, two years analyst at a top ibank) who has only said he's making "a lot more" than he did at the ibank. I wonder if he and his buddies read up on law firm salaries when they need a good laugh. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608134) |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:30 AM Author: mewling lime senate Well Ibank salaries + bonus at the two year analyst level is maybe 120-140K (60/70K Base 60/70 Bonus).
|
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:22 AM Author: Glittery Narrow-minded Prole oh yeah i have this spreadsheet made by presumably analysts at ibanks who gathered information. it's from 2004. blackstone paid 90 base, 110 bonus. and "Co-Investment program available." So 166 base + a bonus like that now seems kind of not as believable. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608142) |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:35 AM Author: mewling lime senate The progression goes as follows from year one to year three (I have an updated spreadsheet from a friend who works at Blackstone)
Year one: 60 Base 70 Bonus
Year two: 70 Base 80 Bonus
Year three: 100 Base 120 Bonus
500K exact.
This is only slightly less than HF work which typically goes:
60/70, 65/80, 70/170

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:39 AM Author: Glittery Narrow-minded Prole this is for their P/E side and not their Ibanking side?
I guess our spreadsheets are different. |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:42 AM Author: mewling lime senate No this is for PE. It's a blackstone spreadsheet same as yours. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608264) |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:43 AM Author: Glittery Narrow-minded Prole No, mine is a spreadsheet of base and bonuses for a bunch of different PE firms in 2004. I think a lot of it is based on rumor and conjecture. I think Ibanking analysts compiled it based on 2nd hand info. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608270) |

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:52 AM Author: mewling lime senate Ah. Mine comes from a friend at Blackstone. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608313) |

|
Date: August 17th, 2005 10:56 AM Author: Glittery Narrow-minded Prole well, i'd like to confirm stuff i heard from headhunters. as i mentioned above, my gf is interviewing for pe firms. she said that mega funds like blackstone and kkr have already m ade their offers, and now all the other funds, ranging from very good to pretty small are interviewing people right after labor day.
typically, a successful applicant would go through how many rounds? 1st-2nd-final? and what is the time commitment for these rounds? whole day for final? |
|
Date: August 17th, 2005 11:10 AM Author: mewling lime senate I really don't know too much about how the interviews go. Typically people go through 1st - 2nd - Final and then some sort of informal dinner round before they make their decisions.
My guess is that the smaller firms might be different. Maybe more careful and nuanced interviews since they probably care more about team dynamics and not fucking up by selecting someone who won't produce. But this is just speculation on my part.
Finals shouldn't take a whole day. |

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:41 AM Author: Charismatic hell There isn't a single analyst at Blackstone in the PE group that came right out of college.
edit: I take that back. There are 2 according to their website. |

Date: August 17th, 2005 10:36 AM Author: High-end rusted locale Do the other firms vary widely from that or is that like a standard market rate? PE has only gotten hotter so it's a lot more likely these numbers could go up. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=241681&forum_id=2#3608232) |
