Re: Will part-time job experience help get a job after completing a commerce/eco degr Well yes they are different (big 4 and ibank interviews). And that's why when I graduated I made $165k in my first year and big 4 grads made $40k.

The devil is Santa's friend Tinkler may be falling now, but is probably still richer than the everyone's future bosses on this thread combined.

First year salary - low. But hey this place needs someone doing the menial stuff. So it might as well be you and not me. Legal aid - you mean charity work?

Yes it's important. It's the difference between a low paying job that works lax hours and a low paying job that works long hours.

One punt and you could be done if you have around $500k saved up. Won't be in property though. I've been meaning to go back permanently all these years but just couldn't bring myself to liquidate assets here and shift over there, especially with the way things are going there. Was looking at...

Haha nothing will make more money than IB in all the conventional tyre kicking jobs we're talking about. But it is still well down. 150k sounds a bit low, but is probably right enough that it's within a big ballpark range. I was on more than that in 2010 and I remember we graduated around same...

Nothing amazing. Been there, done that. Left a long time ago. Great career for risk averse people who've given up becoming anything significant though.

If you do a single degree and get good marks, you'll be far more employable than doing comm/law at a cr@p university. And you save 2 years at university too. My biggest education mistake was doing 5 year comm/law. The best thing I did was to complete it in 4 years.

Studying is in general boring. Not sure why I spent so much time doing it. If I had my time again I'd spend my study time renovating and starting my housing/building/soon-to-be-hotel portfolio earlier.

If you start your own hotel empire and one day build 50 hotels in Australia and more around the world, you'll be the CEO. If you have the title of a CEO in a company you don't own, you are an employee.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Tinkler This is baller. Failing that. http://www.nathanbirch.com.au/ The next time someone thinks they've made it because they got an internship at UBS or GS, let me know so I can laugh at them.

What about day in the life of a lawyer? Wake up Do boring and menial work Go home Think about boring and menial work Repeat Weekend Sleep Waste salary on bars Weekdays Repeat

In my second job and my second career mistake in life - which was going to a top tier law firm (ps I had one interview and was hired in 10 minutes by the head decision maker), I saw a pay cheque of I think $3800 come in for the month. I nearly spewed blood when I got it. While I knew what the...

Haha not exactly, but you're not far off from being thrown out unless something caught my eye in 3 seconds. Eg you got 95+ in perhaps 90% of your subjects? Or you were the Councillor of City of Sydney?

If prestige is relevant to making $10m by 28, let me know the answer.

I'll tell you what's best. When you have almost 10 houses in Melb/Syd, a few apartments in HK, and maybe one in NYC soon, collecting rent with a view to building either a mini hotel in the former or acquiring a block of tong laus in HK and redeveloping it. You can sleep with almost anyone you...

Omg doesn't matter...?

Judging from your retarded question, I think a corporate job will suit you handsomely, future CEO.

How many? Lots in every city If you can't get in you're a failure anyway.

No you are doomed. If I saw your CV I would chuck it out.
