As I’m sure you don’t need to be told, times are pretty tough right now for those seeking new jobs (or a job, period) on Wall Street. Some have taken the all out begging, stand on a street corner holding wearing a sandwich board approach. Others are going with the traditional route (networking, sending out resumes, hitting up any who’s ever given them a business card). Neither are yielding much in the way of results. And while it might seem counterintuitive, for a person with zero prospects to initiate talks with a potential employer by straight up demanding a job and refusing to even interview for it, maybe it’s something you ought to consider, in addition to taking various other pages from this chick‘s playabook.

Such as:

* Hitting people up when they least expect it, like when they’re trolling the internet for ass. For example, don’t stick your resume in some job forum but rather the Casual Encounters section of Craiglist.

* Letting people know from the get go you’re completely serious about this and that you’re not interested in being jerked around. You are a slut to be fucked (in exchange for a job), not to be fucked with.

* Making demands and arbitrary rules that you’re in no position to be making, such as “”we will not proceed to anything until you find me a job.” Kind of be an asshole. People will be confused, not know what to make of it and wonder if you know something they don’t.

I’m telling you, it will work. Having said that, you must be able to back it all up with impressive credentials and/or an ass you could freeze ice on. Otherwise you’re going to make some people very upset, such as this guy:

Basically, she’s looking for a job, which is hilarious, because no one in their right mind would hire her. I made a fake email address, and she sent me her full resume, with ALL contact into, in her first reply… From there easily facebook-able, NOT cute…. And the resume is not impressive at all. Pretty standard, unimpressive GPA at a 3rd or 4th tier MBA, MS in Finance from an OK school, a summer at a decent research shop, otherwise nothing special to speak of. WHY she thinks she deserves a BB job is a mystery to me.

    At first I thought this is another stunt from desparate Stern or CBS grad. At least then, I’d consider hiring them. But a 3rd/4th tier b-school? Prostitutes are much cheaper to come by.

    I think there is probably a PMB slot open somewhere for someone with this kind of ambition.

    Jesus, if I wanted a nagging wife I wouldn’t be trolling Casual Encounters, honey.

    Definitely need to post that resume, girl deserves it for having that kinda gall/stupidity.

    Also, MBA at 24 + work experience? Unless she’s Doogie Howser, MBA…

    I think she needs to broaden her search.

    @AB email me, I have a story for you (and didn’t want to email you at work after the thing with you know who).

    Methinks she has a leeeetle bit of an issue w sense of entitlement…. If anyone actually did give her a job, would bet she a) would have horrible performance, b) would get canned for it, and c) would promptly sue alleging gender discrimination.

    Why does she want a picture?

    I’d say a solid c) for sure. Can see it now: “Tramp who whored herself out for a job sues employer for expecting sex in return for job”

    I bet that Bess is the one who posted those CL ads to fill a slow news day, kinda like the one reporter in The Wire. I insist to see CL’s IP logs for the posts. I will not proceed to make additional comments until they’re published.

    This is a serious comment.

    I would normally agree that posting the resume is out of bounds, however given her CL post, it would seem this chic is not playing by the same rules as the rest of us. Therefore, I see nothing wrong with posting the resume with contact details redacted. From there, the onus of research (and potential guilt) for true identity no longer is in the hands of the anonymous poster. Besides, she is going to be called out anyway…only a matter of time.

    Bess, first off congrats on getting your MBA. Secondly posting your own ad is a little self promotional, but hey a girl’s gotta get ahead I can dig that. And finally, good luck!

    If anyone is shocked by this you need to check on all the banging going on around u….

    some I have seen

    -Female assoc being eaten out, on desk at ML on sunday night; female analyst walk in.

    -ML Analyst banging MD (w. 4 kids)

    -ML Female Associate banging UTOG driver; he bills her waiting time outside her apt 2-4am.

    -ML Female associate on period bang CFO on roadshow

    -Pornstar on Match.com now, IB VP banged her (w. iPhone vid)

    -MS, MD had bonus deduced for lawsuit re; banging Assoc; went to BS

    -Wassertsein MD openly had hookers over in conf room at lunch

    -Famous GS MD, walks in on wife banging contractor at home; she chases him in car, runs over him slightly; he marries Assoc….still at GS, both.

    Female bankers are using their pussy far & wide to get $, title, and just ramming

    @23/24

    See @26, pretty much sums-up my response. The audacity, stupidity, and desperation (among other things) required to post such a thing, on Craigslist, in such a manner BEG for this girl to be exposed, and as @26 said, its only a manner of time, might as well spare her the torture of realizing she made a grave mistake and awaiting that fateful day, no?

    It’s more likely that someone else is trying to pull a prank on her. Good thing her resume wasn’t posted.

    Bess inventing the whole story is also possible but less likely.

    Someone actually posting such an ad is most unlikely.

  42. Posted by Anonymous | August 19, 2010 at 11:05 PM

    If you can’t smell a hoax here, you better move to a sparsely populated area and not access the internet. (I guess this also means no deep-back-office finance jobs.)

    Take this hoax for instance:

    Wow, I’d love to see what this person looks like. strange how jobs are so hard to come by that people see them as a prize to be won… not something that needs to be, like, done and maintained. this poor woman is going to whore herself out to get hired, and she might not even like or be able to do the job! has she ever heard of, say, a banking internship? they don’t always pay, but it’s a small price to maintain your dignity. it’s also beneficial for making some connections you’re not embarrassed to see in public.
