Who Recommended Him?
The recruiter at the table was smiling professionally when Jeremy approached. "Hello! Are you interested in a career with Hale Investments?"
Oh boy, was he! But he worried that if he ended up working at a branch office, he would never find a way to get noticed. Wouldn't it be better to start out somewhere more noticeable and work his way into the main branch from there?
"How does someone get a job at the main office?" Jeremy asked casually.
Of course, he already knew the basics from word of mouth and online research but it might be nice hearing it from someone inside the company.
The recruiter barely held back his laughter. He had seen dozens of cocky kids like this. They all thought they were worthy of working on Wall Street right out of school. Most people didn't even get jobs there until they were in their thirties.
