I have an interview with GS for a Risk Analyst position coming up. Anyone here have any positive/negative experiences in the role? Things to be aware of? I’m not expecting to get far in the process but it’s a nice surprise to get a call back.

Any firms actively hiring in nyc? My brother just moved from overseas and is looking for a job, he has a year and a half of consulting and NGO/humanitarian background and he doesn’t need to be sponsored to work in the US. Any leads would be very appreciated!

Hi, I recently received a job offer of 100k that said their base cap was 95k, should I or can I counteroffer, if so to what would be reasonable? And I've been interviewing with other companies as well and this company isn't my first choice. Can I accept/counter the offer as I see if the companies (of choice) will give me an offer?

It will all work out in the end. I just want to remind everyone that job rejection is just part of the process and try not to get too down if you haven’t landed that new role. What’s yours will be yours at the end of the day. Just remember something bigger and better is coming along!
