You do not want to be part of Goldman’s graduate scheme
When Goldman Sachs promoted its newest group of partners this yr, it mentioned 43% of them joined as campus hires. At VP degree, it is likely to be anticipated that campus recruits could be extra vital. They’re not: Goldman says that 70% of its new class of VPs have joined from elsewhere.
