Why Goldman Sachs? - Answer✔- Just like University of Miami, Goldman Sachs is similar in
size. Goldman is able to maintain intimacy amongst its employees and clients through its great
ratio of advisors to clients . This is particularly important to me because I value creating
meaningful relationships with clients and my coworkers.
-Since Goldman is a "global" bank with offices in most major regions of the world the long term
opportunities and resources are endless.
-After spending a summer at Goldman its clear to me that Goldman hires people who are
dedicated to performing at their up most effort, can outwork their competitors. And therefore, I
want to start my corporate career at Goldman so I could be placed in a challenging high pressure
environment where Ill be able to optimally grow my skills and experience.
Tell me about yourself - Answer✔Currently a senior majoring in finance. I grew up in
Westchester County north of New York City. From a young age I was interested in business. I
started my own sneaker business when I was a teenager, buying, selling, and refurbishing rare
sneakers and did this at a profit. I was so interested in the financial concepts behind this profit
that I knew I wanted to spend my upcoming summers learning more. As Soon as I entered high
school instead of trying to get a typical teenager job like being a life guard, I started networking
and leveraging the small network I had for a summer internship where I could learn more about
finance. This led to two back to back summers interning on wall street called BT trading firm.

ENHANCED MY ANALTICAL SKILLS. Right away after visiting I knew I wanted Miami. As
soon as I got to Miami, I joined a fraternity to create lasting relationships, and sat on the
executive commitee until I went abroad in Austrailia last spring. After interning at Goldman
Sachs in Ny in the PWM division, it was clear I had a strong passion for financial markets,
PWM, and Goldman sachs and looking to futher pursure a career in pwm at goldman sachs.
Why PMW as opposed _______?
Do you see yourself on the client relationship side or the stragedy solutions side? - Answer✔-
Firstly, I want to work in a growth business. PWM is very transactional and no firm has a
significant market share in the pool of wealth. Therefore, every Wealth management business
wants to expand their franchise and acquire more of the worlds wealth.
-In addition, Private wealth managers get to leverage their resources in an effort to be
entrupeuners. Ever since I was young I have been self starter and loved the sales proccess. . The
idea of having to use my network to call my own clients, foster my own relationships, and
overall build my own franchise is very appealing to me.
-Lastly, I am extremely passionate about markets and investing and want to use that passion to
serve people. ***Moreover, its clear to me that their is alot of long term opportunity in private
wealth management because. their is an ungoing creation of wealth. The idea of being able to
penetrate this wealth to serve my clients in reaching their goals is very pleasing to me
--I believe that through my life experiences I have developed the proper skill set to be a
successful wealth manager. As someone who has been interested in finance since a young age
and also a finance major, I have the financial and analytical skills. Through extraculicar activies
and internships, I have interpersonal skills and communications skills that are important on the
relationship-building side of wealth management. I want to use these skills so I can understand
my clients financial goals and objectives and be able to efficiently pitch the proper investment
stragedies.
