How I broke into Investment Banking from Devry
Forget Wall Street wolves, I was a Buckeye Buckaroo with a secret weapon – pure, unadulterated Rizz. Not your average charm, mind you. This was Rizz honed to a razor's edge, forged in the fiery crucible of DeVry University's "Rizzonomics and Persuasion Tactics" program. We weren't your typical finance nerds; we were weaponized complimentarians, masters of the handshake, and engineers of influence. While the rest were stressing over Series 7 exams, I was acing "Advanced Compliment Construction" and "The Art of the Alpha Handshake." DeVry promised "lucrative careers in influence-based roles," and let me tell you, they weren't wrong.
My sights, however, were set a little higher than Bucksnort Investments, a Cleveland gem known for its questionable dress code and even more questionable ethics. No, I craved the hallowed halls of Goldman Sachs, the Investment Banking Division – a playground for the financial elite, and the ultimate test of my Rizz.
My resume? A masterpiece of strategic embellishment, seasoned with a sprinkle of truth. My interview? A Rizz-off for the ages. This wasn't about market trends or bond yields. This was about dominance, pure and simple. I channeled my inner Jordan Belfort (minus the ethics, of course), unleashing a verbal typhoon of smooth talk that would make a televangelist blush. Nietzschean quotes (probably mangled), obscure financial jargon (mostly invented), and a collateralized debt obligation pun so bad it deserved a standing ovation (it got a chuckle) – I threw it all at them.
By the end, they were putty in my hands. Not because I knew a discounted cash flow from a disco ball (let's be honest, they were more like grizzly bears in bespoke suits), but because I could charm the bark off a redwood. Sure, I might not have known the difference between a bull and a bear (though I could definitely tell a power tie from a wannabe power tie), but I could spin a client out of their life savings faster than you can say "market volatility."
So, here I am, Rizzo the Rizzler, the undisputed best skibidi sigma rizzler in all of Ohio, somehow navigating the ruthless world of Goldman Sachs with nothing but my charm and a questionable moral compass. Hey, it works, doesn't it? Just don't tell the HR department about that "Sigma Rizzler Certification" on my resume.
Inspirational!
