Hello all,
Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
1. GMAT = 650 (42Q 38V)
2. Career Goals - I'm looking to get into the Finance industry. I want to get in the more analytic side of finance. Portfolio management, hedge fund managing, etc.
3. Here's a copy of my resume. However, it does not include the position I recently switched to. I am currently a recruiter for the largest staffing firm in the US. I started in December 2010. There is a monthly contest that was instituted this month and I am already rated the 2nd best recruiter. After finishing the intensive training, I have placed about 30 people in positions in the past month. This results in a weekly profit of roughly $9000 a week for the company. If you need any more details regarding the current position, please let me know.
